HELLO IM NEW TO YOUR ACCOUNT AND I SAW REQUESTS ARE OPEN SO HERE I AM CAN I REQUEST FOR DILUC ZHONGLI ALBEDO AND CHILDE TO THEIR S/O CALLING THEM ANOTHER MANS NAME BUT IT WAS COMPLETLY ON ACCIDENT PLS HURT ME WITH ANGST BUT THEY MAKEUO AY THE END 🫶

*ೃ༄ Genshin men reacting to you accidentally calling them another man’s name.

diluc, zhongli, albedo, and childe, (f).

genres + warning. angst to fluff! | none! |

notes i. this is request is stuck in my mind really, I love the idea so much thanks anon!

diluc. It just came out all so suddenly when you were having a great time with your boyfriend, “Kaeya that’s actually really funny!” It was an accident, a terrible mistake for an accident, you have been messing up with your memory lane and you didn’t know how to explain it to diluc who was now giving you an unknowing gaze.

“What did you just call me?” He asks, his eyes slowly darkening, hello accept it and maybe let it go if it was any man’s name but his brother’s? The man whom he learns to despise with his whole being? That’s crossing a line that shouldn’t be crossed at all.

“That was on accident I swear, it just slipped out.” You said to him, trying to recover from your slip up as you bring both of your hands on the air to wave it off.

Diluc feels the sting on his heart, he believes you. Trust me he does, but it still doesn’t fail to hurt his precious heart as he thinks that you’re somehow thinking of his brother when he was right here.

“Love? Please don’t think of it too much, I promise the name just slipped.” You say in a genuine sorry tone, Diluc finally looks up to you and understands the look in your eyes.

“I believe you, don’t worry.”

zhongli. Dinner with the archon was peaceful usually, only the two of you sharing a few words to ask the other about their days and vice versa, but it soon turned south when you just had to mess up, “Childe can you pass me the salt?”

“I’m not Childe, darling.” There was something about how fast he replied with your statement and you quickly fly your hand to cover your mouth in shock.

“Oh my, honey It was an accident.” You say, wanting to make sure that your boyfriend didn’t take it seriously since it was really just a silly accident. Zhongli sighs, slightly feeling like you might’ve found Childe interesting more than him, how ironic, an archon was thinking of such thought, “Zhongli?”

The archon looks back up at you and hums, still feeling under the weather as soon as another’s mans name slipped out of you, “Apologies my darling, it seems that boys name coming out of your pretty mouth makes me zone out.”

“Can we try this again?” You ask, genuinely trying to fix your mistake and willing to try again cause you felt so guilty and sad of even calling him someone else’s name.

“If that is what you want, darling then we shall attempt again.”

albedo. “Something about this view isn’t right.” You say after your boyfriend gave you a chance to pick his reference for him to turn into art and you were more than glad to take it, “I don’t know, Venti.”

You stopped your movements instantly,your eyes now instantly widening at what you just said, it was another mistake that you made. Your head turning slowly towards your boyfriend and you frowned in concern as he just stood there looking at you, his gaze wasn’t something you can read.

“That barb isn’t here with you now, Y/n.” He blankly tells you, despite his blank reply and response. It still doesn’t hide the fact how slightly hurt he was when you said that stupid barbs name as if it was just too comfortable to say it.

“I... I know, it just slipped. I swear I didn’t mean it.” You say, before bringing a hand to scratch the back of your neck as you looked at him with a concerned look.

Albedo sighs, he knows whatever circumstances he finds himself believing and trusting you at the end of the day, “I understand now, Y/n.”

“Now can you please pose nicely? You’d make a great art.”

childe. “Hey Zhongli I need to tell you something!” You said, and even before you can process your words, the damage has already been done and Childe looks your way with disappointment slightly visible on his face and you frowned, “I... That was an accident, Childe.”

“Clearly! You wouldn’t pick that old geez over me would you, baby?” He asks with a laugh, trying to mask up the fact he was actually concerned and worried for a moment.

And you can’t help but to agree, thanking the Gods you had receive such understanding boyfriend.

“But, please don’t ever call me someone’s name again.”

Chapter Masterlist

Chapter Five:

The next day rolls around and you’re still angry over the cold shoulder Kaeya had given you. How dare he act like he didn’t even know you, as if you were some stranger. He was the one who initiated the kiss, he was the one who was mad you two were interrupted and now he was ignoring you? Fucking bullshit. You willed yourself out of bed and tried to find something appropriate to wear to the gym. This would be good for you. You get to get out your anger you felt towards Kaeya and learn some self defense at the same time. You needed self defense more than anything. The night you were attacked was still fresh in your memory and you felt so helpless. You felt weak and you hated that feeling. You were so thankful that Childe had been there, but he wouldn’t be there every time, so you needed this.

You found a pair of black bike shorts and an oversized shirt to throw on, hoping that it was appropriate for the gym. You quickly tossed them on and headed out. Glancing across the street at Kaeya’s shop had you angry all over again. You couldn’t wait to take that anger out on working out, you needed some sort of outlet or you’d explode from all your emotions. The walk to the gym was short, you hadn’t realized how close it was to your flower shop. Itto had said it was a 24 hour gym, which was good to know since you haven’t been sleeping well lately. The minute you entered the gym, Beidou jumped up from behind the desk.

“Y/n! Babe, I had no idea you were coming in today! Itto had mentioned in passing you were coming in for some self defense classes but he didn’t say when! Did something happen?” She babbled all this while rounding the desk and standing in front of you. She grabbed your hands in hers and gave you a soft look. You could feel the tears welling up behind your eyes, you weren’t used to so many people caring about you. Wiping your eyes before you had a chance to let them fall, you recounted the night to Beidou. You left out how your night ended, wanting to keep that little tidbit to yourself. Once you were done with the story, she wrapped you up into her arms, hugging you tightly and petting your hair. “Oh sweets, I'm so sorry that happened to you. You’re in the right place, Gorou is very good at teaching self defense, so you’re in good hands.”

“Thank you Beidou, I’m still a bit shaken up but I'm so glad to have so many people looking out for me. I really appreciate it.” You said honestly. You didn’t have many friends when you lived in Mondstat, so this was all so new to you. But god, you appreciate everyone’s support immensely. She gave you one last bone crushing hug and then ushered you further into the gym. The gym itself was very earthy, plants all over the place. Everything was made from light wood, panels of vines and plants throughout. Coming to a stop in front of a door, she opened it and pushed you in.

“Gorou, sweetie! Y/n is here for her self defense lessons!” A young man around your age, turned and greeted both you and Beidou. He wasn’t like Itto, he was slender but still had muscles. He had a very innocent aura about him, like he couldn’t possibly hurt a fly. You wondered how on earth he’d be able to teach you self defense but you trusted Beidou. “Please take care of her!” She nudged you forward and then exited the room, shutting the door behind her. Now it was just you and Gorou. He stood with his arms crossed, his teal eyes sweeping over your body. You felt slightly self conscious, like you were under scrutiny. You heard him mutter something to himself but couldn’t make out what he had said.

Gorou took you in completely and decided he had to have you one way or another. He didn’t normally get involved with his clients but by god, you were cute and seemed so innocent. He may look sweet and innocent but on the inside he hid a feral animal. He wouldn’t force himself on you, no he wasn’t like that. He’d make you want it but only after he actually taught you a thing or two in self defense Itto had given him a heads up that a cute new girl was coming in but god, he wasn’t expecting this.

“Alright! So I’m going to teach you the basics and then we’ll do a run through of all the different ways you can defend yourself. How does that sound?” He asked as he approached you. You simply nodded, swallowing hard as you watched him circle you, as if he was the predator and you were his prey. “Now, there’s two ways your attacker could approach you. Either he’ll come at you from behind or from your front. It’s easier to defend yourself when you can see your attacker. You’ll want a wide stance and your fists up to defend your face. If they’re coming from the front, you’ll want to go for either their eyes or nose. They’re the most sensitive part of the face. If it’s a male, you can also go for the groin with your knee.” You watch him as he continues to pace around you and talk. You listen with the utmost focus, memorizing everything he’s saying to you. “If your attacker comes from behind you, they’ll likely wrap their arms around your upper half. Aim for their feet, stomp your heel as hard as you can. If they have you in a chokehold, you want to move your head to the side to protect your airway. Once you’ve made sure you can still breath, try and get your leg behind theirs to try and trip them back. Do you want to try now?”

You nervously glanced around the room. Hearing him talk about it was one thing but actually trying to defend yourself? That was a scary thought. But you knew you had to, you had to take this head on. You had to learn to defend yourself and keep yourself safe. You nodded once again, unable to find your voice. For some reason Gorou made you nervous. On the outside he seemed harmless and sweet but you knew better. There was a reason he taught self defense classes. He grinned at you and circled you a few times before coming to your front. You braced yourself, widening your stance and throwing your fists in front of your face. You aimed for his nose but he dodged you. You stepped back and aimed again, but this time you tried faking him out. You swung your right fist towards his nose again and while he tried to dodge it, you threw your left fist into the side of his face, just grazing it.

“Yes!! That was so good Y/n! The fake out was exactly what I was going to teach you next.” His grin was so wide and vibrant, you felt butterflies in your stomach. His praise felt so good. You were happy that you were able to impress him, preening at the attention he was giving you. “Alright, now I’m going to come from behind you.” Again he circled you a few more times, your nerves on high alert now. You couldn’t help feeling a bit scared even though you knew he wouldn’t actually hurt you. So lost in your own head, you didn’t hear him come up behind you. One arm was thrown around your midsection, the other wrapped just above your chest. You struggled to break free, trying to stomp on his feet but he just dodged them. You felt heat travel up your neck, realizing how intimate this position was.

“C’mon y/n, you can get out of this.” He whispered into your ear, his hot breath hitting your neck. Oh god, no no no. This could not be turning you on, this was not the time or place. You tried to refocus, placing your leg behind his in an attempt to trip him. He was too quick, moving his leg out of the way. His hold on you tightened a bit and the arm above your chest migrated up to your neck to have you in a choke hold. He barely put pressure on your neck, but it was enough to restrict your breathing. You gulped hard, all your nerve endings were on fire. You could feel sweat rolling down the side of your neck and your panties dampening. Oh god, this was so embarrassing. You prayed he couldn’t tell how turned on you were, the last thing you needed was to be kicked out of a gym. Gorou’s arm around your throat moved slightly so now his hand grasped your neck, turning your head slightly towards his. “Oh? Don’t tell me this is turning you on, is it?” Before you could even answer or spout apologies, you felt his body press closer and something hard poking your lower back. A small moan escaped your throat and you closed your eyes in embarrassment. Suddenly the door to the room open and in strolled Itto. It didn’t even seem like he was aware of your compromising position

“Hey guys! How’s the- Now what do we have here?” He seemed to clue in on what was going on and his grin quickly morphed into a smirk as he approached the two of you. You could feel the heat radiating off of your face, shame and embarrassment flooded your cheeks. You closed your eyes again, Gorou making no movement to let you go, only pressing his cock harder into you. Your eyes flew open as you felt a presence in front of you. Itto was massive in comparison to you, towering over you and all hardened muscle. His eyes devoured your flushed face and heaving chest. He raised a hand to your face and gently tilted your head up to look him in the eyes. Pure lust, that’s all you saw. “Tell us right now you don’t want this and we’ll both back off.” He said sternly, taking this very seriously. He wouldn’t do anything to you you didn’t want.

“I want this.” You replied confidently, even though you felt your voice shake from nerves. You felt slightly guilty since you did just hook up with Childe recently but it wasn’t like you two were exclusive. And Kaeya had made it perfectly clear he wanted nothing to do with you. You were free to do whatever you wanted, and right now you wanted both of these men. Itto’s smirk widened as you gave the two of them your consent. Oh, he had so many plans for you. Pushing his body closer, so you were now tightly sandwiched between the two of them, he captured your lips in a bruising kiss. Gorou started to slowly grind his hard cock into you, leaving sloppy kisses along your neck. You were overwhelmed by the two of them, your body giving up control to them. Itto continued to roughly make out with you, nipping at your lower lip, licking into your mouth. Everything about him was messy, the way he kissed, the way he roughly grabbed at your body,

“We should get you out of these clothes” Gorou spoke up behind you, his hands now rubbing along the top of your shorts, dipping his fingers in every now and then. Itto pulled back, a string of spit still connecting the two of you. His eyes were blown wide with lust, as he took in your disheveled look. His hands cupped your breasts through your oversized shirt and then made their way down to the bottom, tugging it up and over your head. Gorou made quick work of your shorts, leaving you in your tiny little thong and sports bra. Itto took a step back and grasped his gardening length, groaning as he stroked it through his shorts. You could feel your slick soaking your panties, getting more and more turned on by the second. Gorou also took a step back, taking in your shapely ass and thighs. You felt slightly self conscious standing in front of these two men, both with healthy bodies and you with your rolls and pudge. As if Itto could read your mind, he stepped back towards you, fingers now playing with the strap of your sports bra.

“Your body is fucking magnificent. I’m going to get onto my knees and worship this fucking body.” And that’s exactly what he did. He dropped to his knees and trailed his hands up your thighs, fingers dipping under the strings of your thong and slowly dragging it down your legs. Your cunt was now on full display, your essence soaking the inside of your thighs. Itto’s face moved forward, tongue licking and sucking on your thighs. You jolted slightly as you felt Gorou behind you now. His hands slipped in front of you, grabbing the bottom of your sports bra and slowly dragging it up your body, watching over your shoulder as your breast spilled out of it. He groaned as they bounced slightly, rutting his cock against you. He tossed it aside and brought one hand up to your mouth, slowly pushing three fingers into your mouth.

“Suck. Get them nice and messy for me.” He demanded, pressing his fingers down on your tongue. You sucked and swirled your tongue around his fingers, coating them in your spit. When he was satisfied he pulled them from your mouth and you felt him press one against the tight ring of your asshole. It was an unfamiliar feeling but certainly not unwelcome. You gasped as Itto started to give your clit small kitten licks, forgetting he was there and too distracted by Gorou. You grasped Itto’s hair, trying to steady yourself as he parted your lips with his tongue, dipping into your aching hole. You were far past trying to control your volume and let the moans and whines flow out of you. Your grip tightened as Gorou pushed a finger into your asshole, the sensation sending a tingle down your spine. He slowly fucked his finger into you all the while Itto ate you out. The pleasure was becoming too much, your moans growing louder as they pushed you closer to the edge. Your grip on Itto’s hair never loosened, this was the only way you weren’t toppling over. Gorou slowly eased a second finger into you, pain now mixed with pleasure bloomed through your lower half. Itto sucked hard on your clit, sending you over the edge. You gasped for air as your orgasm ripped through you, neither males letting up.

“I think she has another one in her, don't you?” Gorou asked, peering down at Itto over your shoulder. Itto groaned at the question and continued to lap at your cunt, opting to continue instead of answering. You couldn’t find your voice to object, instead you whined at how sensitive you felt. “Good girl.” Gorou whispered in your ear, slowly easing a third finger. Tears of pleasure and pain rolled down your cheeks as your second orgasm approached a lot faster than the thirst. The pain was slowly leaving your body, the pleasure all consuming. “God, this asshole is so fucking tight. I can’t wait to fuck it.” You moaned in response, eyes gazing down at Itto, who now had three fingers stuffed into your cunt, his tongue swirling around your clit. You choked on an obscene moan as you came for a second time, vision going white and your eyes rolling back. Gorou wrapped an arm around your waist to keep you upright as he slowly removed his fingers from you. Itto held your plush thighs tight as he pulled back from your pussy, grinning up at you with slick covering the bottom half of his face.

“You ready for us both, princess?” He asked as he stood up. Gorou stepped back behind you and quickly lowered his shorts enough to free his achingly hard cock. Instead of waiting for your reply, Itto grabbed your hand and led you over the side of the room. He lowered his body to the floor and then patted his lap, his cock standing proud and waiting. You visibly gulped at the sheer size and girth, unsure how you’d even be able to fit it all inside of you. Gorou placed a gentle hand on your lower back and ushered you forward. Fumbling a bit, you placed both hands on Itto’s shoulders, his hands firmly grasping your hips. He helps you lower yourself down until your cunt is hovering over top of him. Sensing your unease, one of his hands comes up under your chin, tilting your head up to meet his gaze. “Don’t worry, I prepped you enough that it’ll fit.” He said with a sly grin. All you could do was nod.

You felt Gorou’s presence behind you but opted to ignore it right now as you slowly lowered yourself onto Itto’s lap. You moaned as his tip bullied it’s way into your sopping cunt. He slid on with ease, your pussy accommodating to his large size. The stretch burned but very quickly turned into pleasure as you took him in, inch by inch. When you finally had him to the hilt, he paused and let you adjust.

“Gorou, cmere” Itto crooked a finger, motioning for him to come over to his side. Obediently, he walked to Ittos side, Itto’s face level with his cock. A whine escaped his throat as Itto took his cock in one of his hands, stroking it slowly, smearing pre down the length of it. He bent forward a bit and spit on the tip, coating it. “There, this will have to do since we don’t have lube.” He said as he grinned up at the younger man. That hasn’t even crossed your mind, already too fucked out to think properly. Gorou gave himself a few slow strokes and made his way behind you again. He was now firmly pressed against your back, his cock prodding at your asshole. You had no idea how it would feel to be completely stuffed but you were too far gone to care. Itto grasped the back of your head and pulled you forward into a messy kiss, trying his best to distract you. Tears of pain and pleasure rolled down your cheeks as Gorou entered you from behind. You felt stuffed to the brim, it felt like it was too much.

“Oh fuck, you’re squeezing my cock so much.” Itto gritted out, his hold on your hips bruisingly tight now. Your head dropped back onto Gorou’s shoulder as you cried out, the pleasure overwhelming you now. Both men were now fully inside of you, waiting for you to adjust. You didn’t think it was possible to be so stuffed full.

“Please…please someone move.” You whined out, desperate for some sort of stimulation. Almost as if on cue, Itto starts a brutal pace of fucking up into your cunt, Gorou setting a slow pace, not wanting to overwhelm you. You feel like you’re being split in half, the burning ache in your lower stomach steadily increasing as your third orgasm approaches.

“Fuck baby, you’re taking us so well” Itto groaned out, pulling your head forward, lips meeting in a messy kiss. Gorou began to speed up, kissing and biting along your back and shoulders. The grip he had on your hips was bruising but you were too distracted by Itto’s tongue in your mouth. One of his fingers made its way down to your clit, roughly pressing into it. You gasped into his mouth, more tears rolling down your cheeks. It all felt like it was too much, the pleasure was all consuming now, the pain completely gone. “Oh fuck, you’re gunna cum soon aren’t you? I can feel your cunt choking the life outta my cock baby” You babbled a reply, not even sure if it was coherent or not.

Gorou’s mouth latched onto your neck, his whines more frequent now. His pace started to pick up as he chased his high. Itto’s finger started to pick up speed, just enough to push you over the edge. His hand came up to clamp over your mouth as you threw your head back, almost screaming in pleasure. Your orgasm hit you like a freight train, the overstimulation almost becoming too much.

“Fuck fuck fuck fuck” Gorou whined into your neck as you felt the spurt of his hot cum shooting inside of you. He stilled inside you as Itto picked up his rough pace even more. Itto grasped your hair, pulling it roughly as his own cum painted your insides, both holes now stuffed full. The three of you stilled, trying to catch your breath. Your whole body felt like it was on fire, the pleasure you had felt from them overwhelming you. Gorou slowly pulled out of you, watching in awe as his cum seeped out of you. He leant forward a bit, hands on your ass cheeks, pulling them apart. His tongue lapped at your asshole, pushing the cum back inside of you. Underneath you, Itto watched the both of you, taking in your fucked out expression and Gorou lapping at you.

“S’too much! too much!” You said as you tried pushing Gorou away. Itto pulled out but immediately replaced his cock with his fingers, pushing his cum back inside of you. Once they were both satisfied, they helped you up and steadied you. You legs felt weak and wobbly, you felt empty now. Gorou retrieved your clothes and helped you redress, Itto on the other side helping you stay up right.

“You did so good for us, Y/n. I definitely think you’ve learned some proper self defense techniques, amongst other things.” Gorou praised you as he helped you put your shirt back on. You preened under his attention, feeling good about yourself. Despite what had just happened, you did learn some good self defense moves and you felt like you could defend yourself a bit more properly now.

“Thank you, I really appreciate everything” You replied, a blush forming on your cheeks and nose. You’d never been like this before, so open about your sexuality and having casual hookups but it made you feel powerful. Once fully dressed, they walked you to the gym entrance, telling you to come again and get home safe. You were glad Beidou wasn’t at her post, not wanting her to see you like this and make assumptions. You weren’t entirely sure how you looked but it was better not to risk it. You waved at the pair of men and made your way back home, the day's activities running through your mind again. Had you really just done that? Guilt crept into your mind, thinking back to Childe and Alhaitham. You knew you did nothing wrong, but it still felt like you had. No, you were young and full of life, you were allowed to mess around with other people, no strings attached. You glanced over at Kaeya’s shop as you reached your home. The anger had dissipated and now you just felt hurt, not sure why he was letting a simple mistake ruin your friendship like this. Shaking your head, you unlocked your door and headed inside. Your muscles ached from everything you’d been put through today, so you headed to the ensuite of your bedroom and drew yourself a bath. You stripped yourself in the mirror, gazing at some of the marks the men had left on you. You winced as you pressed down on a growing bruise that was forming on your thigh. Shaking your head, you made your way over to the counter and grabbed some epsom salts from under the sink. You added it to your bath and slowly lowered yourself in. You felt the aches slowly leave your body and you let out a relieved sigh. Leaning back, you shut your eyes and mentally went over all that would need to be done to get your shop ready for the grand opening next week. It felt like there was so much more to be done but you were so excited. This had been such a dream of yours and you couldn't believe it was finally coming true. You felt like the pieces of your life were finally falling into place, you were truly becoming the person you’d always wanted to be. Maybe this was the town you could finally plant your roots and bloom.

Sky's Rambles

(AKA: I'm sorry to whoever actually reads this because IDK if you'll be able to make sense of my ADHD and Autism brain clashing)

Can Lyney get a rerun already? I wanna get his weapon and C6 Lynette. Like, I'm TWO CONS OFF

That being said, the upcoming banners are 90% useless too me. I have c6 every 4 star and have both 5 stars. I might go for Kazuha's weapon but like, I don't use him enough to justify that. I don't use him at all really. I prefer Venti for CC bc he has tighter CC and longer stunlock. I think the most I use Kazuha is...my Lyney team. Tbh. I don't even think I use him much there either. I have a C6 Layla and she buffs normal and charged attacks + applies cryo and shields. I only use Kazuha if Layla is taken for another team (which is a lot...Layla is the only shielder I use really since I don't have Zhongli yet. He's the only archon I have yet to get bc I got Raiden while pulling for Cheveruse.

Tbh, I'm glad the upcoming banners are worthless to me bc I have a guarantee for Arleccino (thank you Itto for breaking my win streak. I'll 100% get you next time.)

Also, the starters are in the Chronicled Wish banner and its a higher chance of getting them bc its a smaller 4 star pool. But the thing is, I want Amber. I fucking love Amber and if they dont give her a skin soon I will riot. But like I'm only getting Lisa. I have a c4 Lisa now. I love Lisa. She's so fucking pretty and she's my second strongest starter (Kaeya...isn't built. Amber's my strongest and my only starter to hit 50k as of rn.) But like-

My starter luck is good in the worst way. I got c1 amber forever ago, bought c2 from the shop after Neuvie's banner, got c2 Lisa from singles i got FROM ASCENDING LISA and took way too long to get a c1 Kaeya.

Lynette is so pretty. Like, I have a nuzlock account and she's one of the characters on it and I'm just like

Every time because she's so pretty.

I'm not one to do this much, but Arleccino's idle leaks marked her the first Genshin character to get a "mommy" out of me. Then as a meme to my gf cause she was the one showing me: "Mommy? Sorry. Mommy? Sorry. Mommy? Sorry. -deep as I can manage voice- Father."

We fucking died.

Probably gonna make a post about my teams I have set up one of these days.

If they run arleccino with a wanderer rerun im going to simultaneously die and ascend because Im a wanderer main, but i want arleccino, but that will also mean theres a chance to get that damned bell at r2 while pulling for arleccino's weapon.

I have, 100%, called wanderer's bell Titty Remembrance bc i couldn't remember how to spell Tuttulyas whatever and I gave up.

My favorite no resin things to do with friends:

Bootleg windtrace: hide and seek but we have to chase each other and its fucking terrifying half the time

Randomizer: i spin a boss wheel i spin a character wheel. Assign characters and try to beat the boss with said characters. Reroll if the boss is immune only if the character is catalyst. Cue confused and terrified screaming for bosses that you don't know the mechanics of. It's more fun when using someone's world who has all bosses open. (Thats the only reason I soloed lvl 90 Raiden with a lvl 40 Dori and a lvl 60 Candace.)

I'll add to this later with reposts.

#add tags to help people find your post #tumblr #tumblr I dont think i want that #this is a mess #genshin impact #arleccino is hot and I need her to make the worst fucking team ever since 3/4 of them are dps characters #4/4 if lynette is c6

Hey I just read your nail trend headcannons and they are literally amazing I loved them, would you be willing to add more characters in maybe a part 2 like Kaeya and zhongli :))

A/N: Yeah sure and thank you for reading the first part, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I decided to add the rest of the guys just in case.

The nail trend P2 ft Genshin men

Characters: Ayato, Gorou, Itto, Kaeya, Scarmouche, Thoma and Zhongli.

Aether, Albedo, Childe, Diluc, Kazuha, Venti and Xiao in: P1

Disclaimer: This is a modern au with sexual themes. Minors dni. No pronouns are mentioned in this work.

Kaeya~

☆ "Oh." Is the first word to leave his mouth followed by a mocking sneer.

☆ "What do we have here? Another trend by chance?" He doesn't move just watches you show your nails off to your phone.

"The nail trend, have you heard of it?"

"Can't say I have dear."

"Well everyone on Tiktok is doing it right now."

He falls oddly silent only moving to brush strands of your hair back from your face. When you finish you crawl on top of him, holding his waist on both sides.

"I've clearly been too busy to entertain you. I apologize for that. How about I make it up to you."

Your fingers playfully slide up to his chest arching your body into his as you lay your weight onto him. "What do you have in mind?"

Scaramouche~

☆ Instantly glares at you like you cursed him out or something.

☆ He shifts to the side and when you follow he glares even harder before covering your camera.

"What the fuck are you doing?"

"Babe, you're blocking my shot!"

"Why are you taking a video of my crotch?" He shoves your phone away rolling his eyes when you pout.

"I was doing a trend!"

"Well do it elsewhere."

"I can't, I need you to do it."

"I don't care."

"Ugh you're so rude."

Now he lowers his own phone his hand cupping your cheeks keeping your attention drawn to him, "I'm rude but you barged in here and touched my dick without permission? Maybe you should try using that mouth for something good instead of pissing me off."

You can't even deny how riled up you get when he uses that tone. The corners of your lips rising as you nod. "I'm sorry, I'll be better." You reply slipping your hands up to the hem of his pants.

"That's more like it." He remarks

Thoma~

☆ Pretty boy is utterly lost looking from your phone to you then back again.

☆ After a few seconds a look of realization dawns on his face.

"Oh is this a tiktok trend? If so which one?"

"The nail trend, you show off your nails over your boyfriend's area." You whisper the last part with a childish giggle.

He nods trying to stay perfectly still but it only takes him a couple minutes to begin to squirming.

"Thoma." You sigh with little malice leaning towards your boyfriend to give him a kiss.

"You know what your hand there does to me.. it's ok just leave it and it'll-" He chokes on his words, eyes blowing open. You gave his cock a gentle squeeze coaxing your hand over his length with an agonizing amount of tease.

His adam's apple bobs and he sucks down a breath, "Ok.. you win. But switch places with me so I can take care of you first."

Zhongli~

☆ He glances at you for a split second, internalizes what you're doing then turns his attention back to the book in his hands.

☆ You decide to keep going even though he's basically ignoring you at this point.

After a while you slip your fingers up to tug the spine of his book down. You slide on top of him removing the book from his body entirely and to your surprise he complies to your desires.

"Not going to ask?" You question sliding your fingers beneath the buttons of his shirt.

"I assumed this was another trend you enjoy so I allowed you to partake in it uninterrupted as per our relationship contract which you stated I am no longer allowed to ruin your fun."

You peck his lips, "I did want some reaction though."

His hands curve up your waist keeping you tucked in tight as your short kiss grew more passionate. "Well then how do you wish to proceed?"

Ayato~

☆ He was pretty quiet at first. He'd finished up work and came into your room to rest so of course you had to bug him.

☆ Being extra devious by pressing your nails into his thighs a little.

"By this contact I assume you missed me a lot." He chuckles coaxing a hand over your head.

"Yes." You smile at him lowering your phone.

He pats the open side of the bed and you scramble off the floor molding into his side. His arm immediately tracing up your back to hug your shoulders.

"I missed you as well my love."

"Then act like it." You hum into his chest.

He stifles a laugh knowing it would only rile you up further. "Hmm ok then." He lifts his head connecting his lips with your forehead, cheek and neck. Whispering a soft, "Is this good enough? How about now?" With each peck till you're wiggling uncontrollably in his arms.

When you finally settle you wrap your arms around him tighter. "Can this be the rest of our day?"

"Absolutely."

Gorou~

☆ He instantly goes red in the face, eyes like saucers.

☆ The second his eyes catch onto the camera however he puts a hand over his crotch.

"What're you doing?" He asks squeezing his legs shut.

"It's just a trend, babe everyone's doing it."

He blinks relaxing a little but still stares at you with a bit of apprehension. You place your phone on the dresser laying your back against his chest.

"Are you mad?" His face has mellowed by this point eyebrows unfurrowed. His fingers sliding up the length of your arms.

"No, I'm sorry I overreacted a little. I guess I still don't really understand these trends of yours."

You shift in his grasp pecking his lips. "Don't be sorry. I'll delete the video."

"Thank you."

He's so immediately soothed by your hand beneath his chin watching over your shoulder as you delete the video. His forehead coming down to rest in in crook is your neck as you splay his bangs with your thumb.

"Are you ok?"

"Mm."

"I love you." You mumble and when he hums back you can practically see the hearts floating above his head.

Itto~

☆ "Uh.. what're you doing?"

☆ "Oh! Do you want to have sex?" He perks up though he stares blankly at your phone.

"It's a trend babe."

"Oh! You mean one of the non dance trends." He nods

You sigh already breaking your facade by snorting, "Yes."

He sighs, "Sorry honey but I only follow the dancing ones. Some of them are really fun too if you ever post one of those on your page you have to let me join in."

"I promise."

A small silence floats between the two of you before he adds, "So does that mean this was all a trap and you don't want to have sex or.."

"Oh, no I totally want to have sex."

"Yes! I guessed correctly, see babe I've cracked your code!"

You just giggle wrapping your arms around his neck as you plant yourself in his lap. "Yes you have."

tending to their wounds

they cannot evade death. but with you around, they're invincible.

feat. albedo, childe, diluc, kaeya, kazuha, xiao

genre : headcanons, fluff, angst [for xiao and kazuha], hurt/comfort

warnings : blood and injury. death mention. minor cursing.

❀ albedo

it's to no one's surprise that albedo isn't human, meaning he doesn't have the same bodily functions as the others in mondstadt do. his body cannot bleed nor can he feel much pain. that's not to say he can't at all, but a simple prick from a piece of shattered flask can't really do the young alchemist any harm.

flasks breaking or nicking himself while conducting his own research never really phased the alchemist. despite the warnings his assistant gave him about laboratory safety, he didn't need to heed them if the injuries didn't apply to him, did he?

it's safe to say that the chief alchemist is... perplexed to say the least at seeing you worry over him. he wasn't expecting you to come rushing through his laboratory door when you heard the sound of falling glass and nearly climbed over all of his equipment to come to his aid.

"really, you shouldn't have to worry," his gentle voice reassures you, but his attempts to calm you down are futile. instead, albedo is met with your furrowed brows in concentration and your fingers brushing against his as you inspect his invisible wounds.

"yeah well, maybe if you were more careful in your laboratory i wouldn't be here worrying over you, would i?" albedo sighs at your response and decides to let you do as you please to his 'injuries.'

the alchemist's teal eyes follow your movements as you reach for the bandages in the first aid kit and begin to wrap them around his finger tips. he doesn't miss the way your tongue pokes out from between your lips as you concentrate on the task in front of you.

despite not needing to worry much about him, albedo finds it endearing that you care so much about his wellbeing. how much you care about him, how often you check up on him and make sure he never overworks himself. you truly are a caring individual, a ray of warm sunshine in his life.

you meet albedo's gaze when your name leaves his lips, eyes filled with curiosity at what he could possibly want.

"thank you for tending to me." he thanks you with tender smile on his face, his spare hand gently ruffling your hair. the flustered expression on your face is hard to miss, especially when you quickly duck your head down and away from the alchemist.

you stutter out that 'this is nothing!' and continue on wrapping albedo's faux injuries. though, the alchemist finds the way your hands shake as they brush against his skin adorable.

❀ childe

childe is a war criminal, in case you missed it. it's not uncommon to find the young man fighting an entire hoard of enemies by himself. the thrill of battle never seems to be enough for him, as he constantly seeks anything that could satiate his need for exhilaration.

finding scars or fresh injuries on the harbinger is the usual for you, regardless of whether or not they're shallow wounds or deep gashes that gush blood and stain your poor floor. not that childe minds anyways, he sees his battle scars as medals of the many fights he has won and wears them with pride.

but, despite being one of the fatui harbingers and an absolute beast on the battlefield, that doesn't stop you from worrying about his wellbeing.

your brows furrow in concern at the sight of childe in front of you; body worn from using his foul legacy form one too many times in succession and injuries sustained from his earlier fight. he shouldn't have protected you, really you could have protected yourself. and yet...

"you're going to ruin yourself if you keep going into your other form all the time, you know." childe laughs weakly at your lecturing; that's all he can do right now anyways. you catch your lip in between your teeth as you rub a cooling ointment on the harbinger's body. "this isn't funny. you can't just die. then no one would be the eleventh harbinger and you-"

"i would leave you alone?" childe smiles when you send him a glare. his rough hand finds yours, squeezing it lightly in reassurance. there's not a chance in the world that he would succumb to death just yet. childe is still young, and there are many others that he hasn't had the pleasure of fighting against.

and he sure as abyss can’t pass away without saying how he truly feels about you.

you grumble to the snezhnayan that you could've handled it all alone, that you didn't need him to go all berserk on the ruin guards that had surrounded you earlier. instead, childe laughs and places a weak hand on your forearm. "i know, but that was the perfect time to show you just how well i can fight. maybe then, you'll finally accept my feelings."

a white lie, really. even though childe knows that you could've handled it yourself, he acted on instinct back then. the thought of you being harmed in any way sends a chill down the harbinger's spine. he wouldn't forgive himself if he reacted a second too late and you ended up hurt as a consequence.

what's the point of harboring the power of the abyss if he couldn't protect the ones he loved.

you roll your eyes at his answer, choosing to quietly resume cleaning up childe's wounds in hopes that he doesn't say anything more embarrassing. as your fingers brush against the snezhnayan's freckled skin, you don't miss the way he leans towards your touch and the happy hum rumbling from his chest.

❀ diluc

the darknight hero is not one to lose his battles, let alone allow any of his enemies lay a finger on him. trained by the knights and his own father, diluc's fighting style is difficult to intercept and finding a weak spot in his defense is futile. even if his sword is too slow, his fists will be glad to meet those that oppose him.

that isn't to say he doesn't get hurt every now and then. you've caught him with bandages wrapped around his hand, blood soaked gauze around his torso. as long as the job was done, diluc didn't mind the wounds he received in battle.

he isn't used to others tending to his wounds, as nobody really knows he's the darknight hero and protects mondstadt in the middle of the night. so when you catch him in the act of cleaning his wounds and offer to help, he kind of freezes up.

diluc wants to decline your offer, sure that he could finish this up by himself. and besides, he doesn't want to burden you with his consequences so late at night. but he knows you would keep bugging him and complain later that he didn't "love you" or whatever dramatic act you'd be committing in the near future.

it's hard to look at you when you're so close to the red haired vigilante. granted, diluc has always been pretty close with you, seeing as the two of you grew up together and shared most of your memories with one another (and kaeya).

but being physically close to you... is another story. your fingers lightly touching his skin, your face so close to his as you inspect other wounds on his body, your hands roaming the expanse of his chest to remove his shirt in case it hid any other injuries you could have missed.

diluc's hands twitch when you inch even closer to him. if he wanted to, it would take one swift movement to have his lips on yours. one swift movement to hold you in his arms and feel the way your skin melts into his.

but the vigilante has self-control and would rather die than make you uncomfortable.

diluc releases a shaky breath when you finally move away from his body, though it's only a brief moment of respite since you immediately move back into your previous position after grabbing more bandages. absolutely perfect for the poor vigilante.

he clears his throat when your hands slide down his arms to reassure the pressure is enough to keep his wounds from reopening and bleeding out. it is then that you realize what you've been doing to the poor red haired man and how close you've been to him and his body.

"oh? what could you possibly be thinking about, mr. ragnvindr?" you tease, raising an eyebrow and sending diluc a playful smile. you fail to suppress your laughter when he scrunches up his face and turns his face away from you, his ears burning a wonderful shade of bright pink.

"i think it's time for you to leave." shocked, you try and apologize and get him to let you stay a little bit more. the night is still young, and he still has more injuries to be looked at! but diluc pays you no mind.

not like he'd have the heart to actually kick you out of his room anyways.

❀ kaeya

the captain of the calvary isn't one to fight, always looking for people to do his dirty work so he doesn't have to. why bother exerting more energy than you already have when you can make others do it for you? it's more fun that way, anyways.

that doesn't mean kaeya is incapable of fighting. if needed to, the blue haired captain would gladly point his sword at the enemy to keep them at bay or spar a fellow knight. scratches and shallow scrapes are what you mostly see from him.

you aren't expecting to be called into the knights of favonius headquarters and be greeted by the calvary captain battered up and bruised in the infirmary.

"you're squeezing me too hard," kaeya comments nonchalantly, as if he isn't bleeding to death on the bed right now. "you'll cut off circulation in my arm if you keep doing that." you shoot him a glare, but the blue haired captain only laughs at you. you tighten the bandage on his arm.

you refuse to get tangled up in anymore of kaeya's antics. it's all his fault you've aged ten years because of him and his stupid actions and refusing to ask for help despite the mission being bigger than anyone could handle. alone at least. it's not like you don't trust him, but a little extra help isn't bad to have.

your frown deepens when your eyes flit up to stare at the blood soaked shirt covering kaeya's chest. you order him to take it off so you can inspect his injury, which was a mistake on your part.

"oh? shouldn't you ask me on a date first before being this forward?" kaeya's laughter rings around the infirmary seeing your deadpan expression at his joke. maybe you should just leave, just leave this stupid man to bleed to death on this infirmary bed. maybe then you would finally be at peace.

"well. maybe i would have asked you on a date if you weren't so stupid to take this dumb mission alone. you could have died, asshole." kaeya only hums in response, which pisses you off even more. it's like he didn't have a care in the world.

in the midst of your grumblings and cleaning of kaeya's wounds, you miss the tender look he gives you; warm and gentle. the captain finds it nice to have someone care for someone like him after so long.

it wasn’t his fault he wanted to do this alone. well, it was, but it’s hard for kaeya to rely on others and be vulnerable to those around him despite how long he’s known them. his walls are built high, refusing to let anybody in in case he accidentally hurts them in the future.

he wonders if you'd miss him if he disappeared one day, but the way your brows furrow in concern at seeing how bad the gash in his chest confirms his answer.

kaeya’s endearing, warm smile is replaced with the usual smug smirk when you look up to meet his gaze. one day, he hopes he’ll be able to let his walls down around you.

"you know, you're really cute when you worry over me. maybe i should get injured more often." the look of shock at kaeya's comment is evident on your flustered face and it takes everything in him to not laugh and open up his wounds again.

❀ kazuha

kazuha isn't one to easily get injured, well at least seriously injured. he was raised by a prestigious family, trained in the arts of the kaedehara clan. with the help of his prior knowledge of fighting and his keen senses, it's hard to one-up the young man to the point of injury.

that isn't to say he has never sustained any injuries. there have been one too many times that the inazuman traveller has shown up at your door with a couple of scrapes and an apologetic smile on his face.

so, it's a surprise when you find kazuha at your doorstep severely injured and clutching something in his burned hand.

it's quiet between the two of you as your eyes scan kazuha's body for any more injuries and your hands quickly move to tend to his right hand. the skin is burnt, bleeding, and his fingers shake from the injuries it sustained.

you whisper an apology to the inazuman when you gently clean the wounded skin with a warm cloth. he doesn't flinch, dazed eyes still staring off in front of you. it makes you wonder what kazuha went through to be injured this badly. though, seeing as the only serious injury was his right hand, you assumed it wasn't from a fight.

"kazuha... what happened to you?" your words are gentle, afraid your voice would scare the inazuman traveller in front of you. kazuha doesn't respond and instead tightens the grip he has on your hand that's bandaging him. his hand is shaking, and you don't realize he's crying until you feel the wet teardrops on your skin.

ruby eyes glazed with tears meet your own when your eyes flick up to confirm that he was indeed crying.

"tomo..." the crack in his voice shatters your heart and you find yourself pulling kazuha into your arms. his own circle around you and his hands grip onto the back of your shirt as he buries his face into your shoulder.

kazuha's body shakes as he sobs at the loss of his friend. he must have held it in until he got to the safety of your home. you were always his safe haven; coming over so you could tend his light wounds and provide a roof over his head if he was passing by your village.

and yet all you can do now is hold him until the storm inside his heart passes by.

❀ xiao

being in pain or having many injuries litter the expanse of his skin isn't unusual for xiao. he's an adeptus whose sole purpose is to serve rex lapis and protect the citizens of liyue, even if it meant throwing his life away.

even then, sustaining larger, more painful wounds didn't make the adeptus bat an eye. despite how horrible it sounds, xiao is used to it all and takes each hit and laceration that comes his way without blinking an eye.

when karmic debt constantly takes a toll against your health and death is the only solution to reaching true peace, it's hard to care about the state of your own wellbeing.

so imagine xiao's surprise when he shows up at the wangshu inn battered and bruised from dealing with a hoard of monsters and seeing you standing in the yaksha's usual spot, waiting for him with a frown etched into your face.

nimble fingers work deftly against xiao's body, quickly cleaning up the lacerations on the adeptus' chest and the scrapes that cover his arms. xiao releases a hiss from the sting of the medicine and you apologize under your breath.

"i knew you would end up like this." your words come out harsher than you intend to. the adeptus doesn't respond. as long as he was the only casualty to come out of this, as long as the innocent lives of liyuens were protected, as long as you were safe behind the walls of the wangshuu inn, it didn't matter how badly his body was injured.

"i just... i just wished you weren't so careless, xiao." the way your voice breaks doesn't go unheard by the yaksha. his eyes snap forward, but your head is tilted down as your shaky fingers worked their way around xiao's torso. "you're always fighting as if no one cared if you died or disappeared one day."

xiao doesn't get it. he doesn't understand why you care about him so much. a being fated to suffer until his dying days are over, one cursed with karmic debt and forced to carry the burdens of the innocent lives he took in his past.

no one should care about him. a monster with blood on his hands.

but here you are, shedding tears for an adeptus who didn't deserve it. the sole yaksha who is fated to succumb to the sweet embrace of death at any given moment.

and yet, despite knowing he doesn't deserve your gentle touch brushing over his wounds, the young adeptus lifts your face with a gloved finger and brushes away the tears that flow down your cheeks. he longs to continue holding you, to feel your skin against his. you're his temporary solace from the karmic debt that hangs over his heart.

an apology slips past xiao's lips, and you cry harder, calling him 'stupid' for almost dying out there. you bury yourself in his chest and he hugs you, afraid that if he let go, you would be nothing but a dream.

Genshin Boys would be Horrible as Disney Princes

Headcanon and Reader Perspective, Drabble

Sojourner Special (Followers Event)

Despite being the gentleman and sweethearts that they are, in the wrong hands, of badly aligned context and universal rules these boys can barely function as princes given their own ideals.

Diluc in Cinderella

Shortest one, oops.

Our Diluc would honestly be too busy for balls if we're doing this canonically, night time of all times. He's not your prince tonight, he's off somewhere doing Knight stuff...

If by chance you did catch him in the ball and he did indulge you with your dance until you escapaded at midnight, he's not gonna question it.

And since he didn't even REMEMBER your face, the next day just goes on as usual. No decree for searching the whole land for your foot or anything, it's just a normal day after a party.

"They left without a word, no name or promise, who am I to say no when they clearly don't want to stay?"

He's a gentleman. Too gentlemanly...

Childe in Sleeping Beauty

In this scenario, Childe embraces his knight-ness more than the princely aspect. I mean sure, he danced with you in the forest all so lovingly, sang along to your pretty lil voice. But when the prophecy came, his focus changed—

To the thrill of fighting a big ass green fire breathing dragon! Big woah, Childe had soooo much fun fighting it that he didn't even cheese it.

He lived for every hour of the fight and made it as slow as possible. Taunting, playing with his PREY- mid-fight the dragon would realize just how strong and horrifying Prince Childe is, but the entertainment had started, and the dance won't end until Childe wills it.

When he DID finally slay the damned thing, he'll come up to your quarters and stare at your sleeping body, and then think "Hey, if them being put under this spell gave me the fight of the century? What if ANOTHER dragon comes? That would be amazing!" No waking up for you, or the whole city for that matter.

Albedo in Frog Princess

You... You don't even get the chance to be the frog princess in here... simply because he himself REFUSES to change back to normal. You have never met a man so intelligent, much more a frog.

"I know of which you are not, I won't be fooled by cardboard crowns and secondhand dresses," you choke as he berates every fiber of your being, "It matters not, I still have much to learn about the life of an amphibian."

He disappears after that and you've never heard from him ever again, although at the back of your mind you're pretty sure he's a live and well, that bastard is too smart to end up as roadkill.

And well, you're right, he's out there in the world of frogs doing frog things. Triumphant over frog science and the other talking creatures he may meet.

He'll also find a way to revert himself back to normal, either making his own cure or just enlisting the help of a princess to bargain.

He might come to you upon the logic of marriage counting you as princess, but don't get too hyped, you won't be treated as his wife. He'd be too busy putting his frog research into paper...

Zhongli in Beauty and the Beast

A beast he may be, he's still dignified and elegant, upholding his end of the bargain so long as the other does the same.

Your father may have trespassed and have taken some flowers in his domain but well, really it's such a petty crime that can easily be solvable. And even if there needs to be punishment incured...

When you stumble to the mansion in search of your father, ready to take his place from his jail cell, you find him and the beast (ohh half-dragon Zhongles) by an elegant table drinking cups of tea with light conversation. Huh?

"There is no need to fret, your father and I are just discussing the terms of our contract. He spoke of his woodworks that I wish to commission in exchange, such good potential should not be wasted."

You can also, well, pay off things within contract? But either way, it would be hella awakward, he won't impose on your life and most certainly not about the curse when you had so much to live for.

Kaeya in Rapunzel

Little bitch, thru and thru. If Eugene is such a criminal, he's taking it TENFOLD.

He's not even gonna be the slightest bit trustworthy for you, little Rapunzel, because he raises so many red flags your frying pan wouldn't even be enough to threaten him. He probably has a really thick skull, and your resolve won't be able to smack that pretty face.

Bargaining won't work, he'd sleight of hand his way out and get the crown knowing you'd hid it in the pot immediately, and then just backflip outta there.

If you manage to get him to get you out, he's not gonna be of help either. Kaeya would be amused with toying with you, leaving you in the dark as you get scared shitless/dance around with some tavern criminals. Otherwise, ehh...

One way or another, he's gonna find a way to get you off his case. Either forcing you to travel with companions that's headed to the city anyways or forcefully knocking you out and heaving you back to your tower.

"You have a mother that never ages lock you up in this tower? Nu uh, sweetie, I'm not dealing with the dark forces of witchery when I'm already well off with the crown."

He got the crown.

Venti in Snow White

I'm sorry what? Free apples? Eternal sleep in a beautiful bed? He's gonna be glad to just take your place. (Spoilers, he would)

He'd be most definitely entertained with your dwarves, playing his tunes. You life would be filled with his lyre as he plays around, not even caring about the other implications of yours or his status in this woodland forest.

You ran away from home? Cool, freedom, man. Wish he could the same without jeopardizing the kingdom and his family. He'd probably take the apple too just for you~

During your rest, he'll come up with the most eloquent song to play for your seven dwarves as he watches your fate sadly. How peaceful you looked, away from the world and from the grips of death.

The dwarves would force him to please try and break the spell, and he'll shrug and indulge- except it didn't break the spell, as he expected it to be. And they are clueless on who else you had encountered in your life to even spare a true love's kiss.

"How saddening, the princess lays. Maddening to those around as they'd say, if only my kiss was enough for the curse to sway." You died, ouch.

Xiao in Mulan

Brutal. Brutal. Brutal. His voicelines would come in sooooo handy here, oh my goodness.

If you miraculously bypassed his analytical gaze enough to hide your sexuality, you're going to die in his training program. He's not gonna go easy on you, not when the fate of the nation lies upon your capability to keep up. You're gonna go through far worse than what true Mulan went through, and you may or may not just die in the process.

If by chance you survived, this would warrant enough respect to not kill you (oh, you lived) but you better not show up again.

He's never gonna be delighted to see your traitorous face again, he can save China on his own, thank you very much. And you know he can. Try and approach him, and a sword would be at your neck once again.

"Foolish gremlin, you think you had the right to present yourself after the treason you willfully committed? We won't crumble at the loss of one person, your job here is done." How sad.

Cyno in Little Mermaid

First of all, wack, mermaids exist! Sadly, that's nothing new for him. He knows a lot with that intelligent mind of his, so it would be no surprise that the existence of such mythical creatures doesn't make him bat an eyelash. He's been living near water, he's not that stupid.

With that in mind, your presence in your first meeting is going to be bad. Very bad. Cyno knows about sirens and he's not at all gonna fall for it, and if by chance he had known you before the ship was wrecked, he's probably gonna be veryyy keen in capturing you instead.

So if by chance you're stupid enough to interact with him and DESIRE to be on land with him, you're gonna deal with a lot of problems.

You're not getting that kiss easily. No, it's a huge challenge. He'd be repulsed in your naivety and will most likely be more concerned on your voice than ever. He'd be so kind to try and give a shot in helping with the cure but it's not the cure you needed.

He'll drown himself in every literature in full concentration just to see if there's any text he can find about curses and muteness. His curiousity would get the best of him, and you'll barely see him after you managed to explain your predicament without the need for words. Octopus woman doesn't even need to show up to intervene.

"A kiss? Surely not, such ailment won't be cured by fairytale methods." And then he goes back to his library once again. And you will be seafoam the next sunrise. Or was it sunset?

"So now that we've established these grounds," Exiled turns to the other two in the area, "Maybe, these boys would be better off as princesses."

And so the trio concocts a new type of fairytale, collaborated to masterpieces soon after.

Note

Hello, is it alright if I request headcanons for Kaeya and Diluc? How would they react to being surrounded by enemies, but their s/o comes to their rescue? And together, they manage to take out the enemies? Thank you for your time.

rescued.

-> kaeya, diluc | gn!reader

-> fluff, action

-> warnings: fighting, slight injuries

Early one morning, Kaeya was sent on a basic mission to clear out a hilichurl camp that had set up a little too close to Mondstadt. This wasn’t a problem at first- Kaeya is always sent on things like this. The problem was that he left after breakfast, and hasn’t returned well past lunch.

For Kaeya, hilichurl camps took less than 30 minutes. Not hours.

You set out to search for him and found him near Springvale, battered, bloodied, and bruised. Breathing a sigh of relief, you began to rush towards him, but he held up a hand to stop you.

A Fatui agent suddenly appeared behind him. Then another. And another. They surrounded him and raised their weapons, unaware of your presence. So you quickly moved.

Your weapon was in the Electro Skirmisher’s path before he got the chance to hit your lover, and soon your vision forced them all back. This gave Kaeya enough time to recuperate and draw his own sword, charging forward to help you take them all out.

When you’re all finished, panting and trying to catch your breath, Kaeya comes over to you and wraps his arm around your waist, pressing a kiss against the top of your head as you survey the Fatui lying on the ground.

You lay your head on his shoulder as he whispers, “That’s my baby.”

You knew that Diluc was the Darknight Hero. You also knew that he hated when you got involved in his... nightly duties, fearing that you would get injured or worse.

But when he didn’t come home in the morning like you were expecting, you got a little concerned.

He had mentioned finding an Abyss Order hideout located near the base of Dragonspine, and was wondering what they were planning with the snowy mountain. And with only that information in mind, you grabbed a weapon and set off.

Abyss mages, hilichurls, samachurls, and mitachurls all surrounded him as he sent out another flame from his claymore. But as he conquered a few, tens more appeared from out of the hideout. He was getting overwhelmed, and would be defeated quickly if you didn’t intervene.

“Y/N?” He gasped as you ran up to guard his rear, but couldn’t do much reprimanding as he swiped at another dendro samachurl in his way. He stayed silent through the long fight, but you could feel his slight annoyance that definitely stemmed from your appearance.

“Why did you come? You know I don’t like you fighting-“

“Yeah, yeah,” You interrupted, “Diluc, you could’ve gotten killed! Worry less about me and more about yourself, will you?”

He was frustrated, but you were right. He had stumbled into the hideout head on, not even stopping to consider the potential of an ambush. Truthfully, he was glad you showed up.

To show that, Diluc sighed and put his hands on your waist, pulling you into his chest and resting his chin in your hair. “I’m sorry. For worrying you, and for scolding you.”

You laughed as you played with the hairs on the nape of his neck, your lips brushing against the crook of his shoulder making him shiver. “You better be glad I saved your sorry ass.”

“I truly am. And I’ll make it up to you, whatever it takes.”

Hey, could you do one (if you want to ofc) where the reader has been told that her crush knows that she likes him, but in reality he has no idea so he finds out when she talks to him? With kaeya and/or Childe? And fluff please :) Thank you!

pairings ; kaeya x fem!reader , childe x fem!reader.

genre ; fluff.

warning ; a mild heart attack from the boys being adorable, 1.3k words (679 , 627).

note ; i love this idea sm KSHUSA- thanks for requesting !!

for as long as (y/n) could remember, she had the biggest crush on non other than the calvary knight of favonious. his flirty personality and the mysterious aura surrounding him just lured her in even more. she had always thought it was pretty obvious by the way she was looking at him, laughing at silly things he said and having her face flush different shades of pink everytime he teased her. it was no surprise that he didn't seem to catch on her feelings. after all, he was the most attractive man in mondstadt - if not in teyvat as a whole. everyone wanted him, or to be him. and so, he was used to these typical looks of attraction and admiration.

the female sat in angel's share, her gaze stuck onto the glass of beer on the table in front of her. she wasn't sure what to do with her growning feelings towards kaeya - and she also couldn't act on them due to the fear of him not returning said feelings. of course, what could he find in her ? she wasn't popular, nor did anyone lust after her. she was a simple, ordinary human being.

and soon her biggest fear came crushing down when diluc, kaeya's long time archenemy and adoptive brother, approached her with a questioning look on his face. "so, kaeya told me that you said that you like him." the fiery man began, sitting himself across from (y/n). of course, it wasn't the truth - he just tried to make her confess to his brother since he couldn't bear watching her pining hopelessly after him.

"he- what ?" almost dropped her glass onto the ground, her eyes widening as if she saw a spider climbing on her bed. but, the idea of kaeya knowing about her feelings was much scarier than any spider she could ever imagine. well, since it seemed like he already knew, she knew she had to go over and explain herself - that way she wouldn't seem helpless in front of that calvary captain.

"i have to go." the female blurted out, running out of the small, cozy restaurant towards the knights of favonious headquarters. she knew he'd probably be there - and if not, he could ask the other captains. maybe eula or albedo would know where he was. but luckily for her, as soon as she bursted into jean's office, the blue haired man was sitting there and working on a paper sheet.

upon her arrival, kaeya raised his head, a thin smirk appearing on his lips. "oh ? what's the rush, (y/n) ?" his smooth, flirty voice hummed when he watched her curiously. "did you miss me that much ?" of course; he was still a smooth-talker as usual. he didn't seem to act any differently towards her, which at first seemed weird. weren't he planning to tease her, or tell her she has no chance with him ?

"kaeya, listen." (y/n) breathed out heavily. she paused for a moment in order to collect her thoughts before finally speaking up again. "i know that you're aware of my romantic feelings towards you, but- don't think i'd be willing to chase after you since you're most likely uninterested."

"(y/n)-"

"i just want to know how did you find out."

"(y/n), i had no idea you've felt this way towards me. what gave you the idea that i did ?"

"diluc told me th-"

"i see." the mention of the red haired did explain a few things to kaeya. however, he soon returned to the fact that she had confessed to him out of the thin air. "well, diluc tricked you. however, i am glad you've finally told me." the male got up from his chair and approached the female. he placed his hand gently on her cheeks before speaking up once again. "you had no idea for how long i have been waiting for you, princess."

and just like that, (y/n)'s plan on murdering diluc ceased to exist. instead she interwined her fingers with his, simply happy about their newfounded bond that they had established at that very moment.

ah, tartaglia. the only man who gave (y/n) this amount of affection. he always hugged her, slipped in a few flirts and came out with new pet names. he always planted her face with kisses - but soon she learned he was just like that towards everyone. of course, it made her upset that he didn't see her as a 'special' one; but she also knew she couldn't force feelings onto him. instead, she watched as he acted the same towards anyone he saw, so desperate to be the one he was talking to.

and that is why (y/n) decided to talk to zhongli - he was tartaglia's closest friend and probably knew him more than childe knew himself. not to mention, zhongli was an extremely wise man and always knew what to do in any situation. once he told her that she should tell him- but she refused, said she only finds the idea ridiculous.

and yet nothing could prepare her for what was about to unfold. (y/n) sat across from zhongli in the wangsheng parlor building, unsuspecting that her life would soon take a huge turn. "mr. zhongli." she greeted with a small bow. "i am not sure what to do with childe." the female gulped nervously. she knew she sounded silly - after all, not once did he tell her she should confess, and yet she refused each time. at this point she had nothing else to do.

"you were a bit late. this morning he approached me and told me that he knew about the way you felt. however, he told me he wasn't brave enough to face you and tell you what he thinks of the situation." zhongli hummed, taking a sip from his cup of tea before glancing at the woman sitting across from him. there was no harm in telling a harmless lie, right ? zhongli was simply growing tired of their tragic love story so he had to make a change. in the meantime, (y/n) had seemingly frozen up in her spot. that was a bad sign, was it not ? he was aware of everything.

she quickly jumped out of her seat, mumbling a small farewell to the tall man before making her way towards the northland bank where tartaglia had usually hung out. she knew she had to explain herself as quick as possible - she was purely embarrassed. and so she bursted in, almost tripping over her own feet.

however, two strong arms caught her just in time before she collided with the floor. "what's the rush, girlie ?" a familiar voice spoke up to her. she raised her head, her eyes meeting the blue orbs of the orange haired man she had been looking for. his eyes sparked in amusement before he carefully helped her up. "that is one way to fall for someone." childe chuckled teasingly, shaking his head upon seeing her somewhat disappointed expression.

"so, there is no point hiding my feelings anymore since you've figured it out. yes, i like you. a lot, even. but it's fine, i have prepared myself for a rejection." the female began talking, she felt as if the remaining her she had in her lungs was quick to disappear. she then looked up to see a surprised ajax standing in front of her.

"i actually had no idea this is how you felt."

"wait, what ?"

"but you have no idea how i have been feeling the same ever since i have met you."

(y/n) froze up, feeling as her face was heating up.

"say, (y/n), will you go out with me ? i think this is the appropriate time to finally ask."

"of course i will, dork."

and so began a beautiful relationship between the harbinger and (y/n) - all thanks to the zhongli's little lie.

Kidnapped Genshin Boys x Fem Rich!reader pt.2

Part 1 (Kaeya, Zhongli, Xiao)

Characters: Childe, Diluc, Kazuha

Genre: fluff, established relationship, some woman kicking ass action, (TW: mentions of blood and violence)

---

CHILDE

Your boyfriend would definitely try to go head-to-head against the shady group of people who abducted him. The gang accountable must be living under the rock for even considering one of the most dangerous Harbingers as their prey to carry out their schemes.

However, Childe learned that there would be ramifications if he tries to be rash without gathering solid intel first. Having no knowledge of your current circumstances and whereabouts troubled him to the core. They could have already sent out a corresponding group towards you and endanger you if he failed to listen.

Being wealthy is not a foreign concept to Childe as he is also a wealthy man himself. That said, the premonition of being a target for a ransom would not be unrealistic to him. For now, he is glad that he is the victim here instead of having to witness you kidnapped.

"You know, you could've asked me nicely for some money. I might just give it to you, instead of doing all this for my girlfriend's money." Despite being in a position far from desirable, Childe leisurely sat on the chair that he was bound to, crossing his legs. He was making small talks to push away the worst scenarios happening to you. Are you safe? Are you crying? Did they hurt you?

"I don't know who you are to be running your mouth, but you should value your life a little more." Their leader emerged from the group.

Childe's ocean eyes squinted as menace casts upon his pupils, his voice lowered, "Is that so? Ironic, because you guys seem to value money more than your lives."

The head stepped back slightly, "Enough with your empty threats! You should be aware of the current situation you're in. We're not fooling around here."

"I'm not fooling around either."

As sparks were thrown back and forth, you made your way in through the main entrance. Tapping the shoulder that belongs to one of the men, "Excuse me, I need to get to my boyfriend." Your fist sunk into the side of his face when he turned towards you. He collapsed on the ground with a few broken teeth and blood spewing out of his mouth. Moving on to the next adversary in your path, you fought with full faith in your abilities no matter how intimidating they were.

Soon, the leader and people further ahead finally took notice of it. You pave your way towards your boyfriend and eventually, both your eyes meet each other. Childe puffed out a breath of relief when he finally saw you, but also registering the fact that you just took down most of the men with your bare hands.

Kicking away the men who tried to grab you, you then waved enthusiastically at Childe, "Hey girlie, hold still." Rushing right ahead to the leader, you brought your arm near your face, elbow pointing outwards. The sharp edge from your elbow jabbed his throat, causing him to choke and lose balance.

As his reaction dulled, it was your chance to strike again. Thus, you gallantly overthrew their leader and the entire gang by yourself.

After helping Childe, he stood up abruptly and placed his hands on your shoulder with eagerness written all over the face, "I never knew you could fight so well! How about a spar with me right now?" Expect your boyfriend to continuously bug you to indulge in his rampant itch to fight anyone that comes across as a worthy opponent. Though, the real takeaway from this experience was the way your hair clings to your face with sweat as the adhesive and the triumph look in your eyes. It was a rather attractive sight to relish in his taste.

DILUC

Your boyfriend would be infuriated that crooked people like these exist, much less target him to extort money from you. Just another validation to add up on how incompetent the Knights of Favonious is, he thought. Someone will have to clean up their mess, that someone being him. What better way to do that than to follow them to their hideout to seek out the whole organization?

Diluc is renowned for being one of the richest men in Teyvat. Naturally, the group thought they hit the jackpot on not only holding him for ransom, but potentially garnering some money from him as well.

The only concern he carries is your wellbeing. Diluc fears that this incident will affect you mentally. His head started filling up with formulations on ways to resolve this matter without causing any uproar to guarantee your safety.

When the head was introduced to him, he gritted his teeth to suppress every ounce of his might to not reach for his claymore. Diluc still has to prioritize gathering information first regarding the gang. His patrons at Angel's Share are usually the ones providing him with promising intel of any evildoers, but some things are just meant to be obtained by himself.

"Is this the only hideout you have? Quite in a shambles, don't you think?" Diluc's eyes shifted around the dilapidated building, observing the surroundings to know his enemies better.

The leader rolled his eyes, "It wouldn't be so bad once we get some funding from you and your girlfriend." Diluc hummed. Judging from his answer, it is safe to assume that the organization is rather a small scaling one. Defeating them right now will result in uprooting the source once and for all.

As Diluc was about to do so, a lackey of the gang ran frantically towards them, panting labored when he reached and trying to catch his breath. "What is it?" The leader question.

"T-there's... there's someone." He pointed towards a direction with fear layering his voice.

"What? Why are you so scared?" They all glanced towards the spot.

"I swear there was a woman! I don't know who it is, but she took out some of our guys on guard outside."

In disbelief that a woman could have done anything so reckless, the leader trudged to said location. As it is a spot lacking light, the darkness and shadow made it challenging for him to pinpoint if anyone is there. When he moved closer, you crept out behind from his blind spot and kicked the back of his head, causing his head to spin. Your arm lunged forward, gaining a tight hold onto his nape. You put everything into pushing him, his forehead hammered down to the floor. Creating a loud thud, it gave him a concussion.

"Looking for me?" Your foot stamped onto his back, just making sure he stays down.

Everyone, including your boyfriend, had their pupils dilated at the scene. You sighed at the silence, "All of you just messed with the wrong couple." Lifting your foot away, you stomped forward without giving them a second thought. Your arms and legs are all warmed up for many rounds against your foes.

Diluc watched you from afar as you drove your way towards victory. Although he could step in to help, he admits silently to himself that he would like to observe you a little longer. Putting his trust in your calibers to carry you far, his eyes never left your brave figure.

Once you cleared the group, the next thing to do is checking on Diluc. Already unfastening the restrains himself, he walked to you, "That was well executed. Your abilities shouldn't be underestimated. Don't join the Knights though." He stressed the last remark, scoffing. You chuckled and held his hand to guide him out of here, "Thanks. Glad to impress you, Master Diluc. Let's go home."

KAZUHA

Your boyfriend is a rather hard target to impose on for their plans of kidnapping him. His senses are just too refined for an ordinary person to challenge. Basic tactics, such as overthrowing him with the element of surprise have proven to be futile. Thus, Kazuha will always be able to evade falling prey into their hands.

The only way Kazuha could have been kidnapped is through falsifying evidence of you being in a life-threatening situation. Although he has successfully saved his own skin, not the same could be applied to you. Feeling his resolve shaken, what other choices could he have? Prioritizing your safety is the most important thing right now.

Kazuha may have faced similar situations in the past when out in the sea, encountering pirates of other crew aiming for the Crux Fleet's fortune. Being in the position as a captive for ransom is new. He actually found it amusing, rather than having thoughts of blaming you. It is not your fault that you are blessed with wealth. It is the fault of the criminals.

"Ain't you that the kid who's with Beidou? You're part of her crew." The leader questioned his target, to which he was greeted by Kazuha's silence. "Tell you what. You're just like the rest of us. We want to be rich. How about you ask your girlfriend to bring some more money and we'll give you a share as well?"

Kazuha's face darkened, "I don't know what you've heard, but it must be really valiant of you to assume to worst out of the Crux Fleet and myself. I'd appreciate it if you cease lumping me together with criminals like you."

The Crux Fleet does put up with an infamous reputation amongst the Qixing. Perhaps the abductors concluded that Kazuha has a negative conscience just like them, as in upholding a relationship with you to have a taste of your assets. Still, if he tried to talk his way out of it, barbarians like them will never reach a mutual understanding with him. Kazuha shut his eyes, ignoring any further confrontations to preserve his energy as he contemplates a plan.

He was interrupted when he thought he heard your voice nearby, carried by the wind. The others around him did not hear it since it was just something only Kazuha could pick up. Applying full concentration, he managed to form what he heard, "Get out of my way, please, while I'm asking nicely."

Opening his eyes, he turned to stare at the entrance. As if on cue, the door swung open when you kicked it down, announcing your presence. Some men fainted below your feet.

The others instantly reacted by storming towards your direction to stop your advancement. You stood still in your position, taking a mindful deep breath. One thing you learned from Kazuha is to always remain cold-headed before engaging in a fight.

Kazuha wanted to get out of the restraints to rescue you, but instead, you started dishing out few moves against the men.

When you thought you finished with the remaining numbers, their leader was about to declare his victory, "I got you!" Encircling his arm around your neck in an attempt to strangle you, you huffed and grinned towards Kazuha to signal him you have it under control.

You elbowed his stomach and felt him loosen his grip when he winced. Making enough gap between his arm and your neck, you slipped away and swiftly kicked in between his groins. The color drained from his face and tumbled to the ground, passing out in pain, "Hmph, this is what happens when you touch a lady without her permission." You brushed away the hair from your face after an arduous fight.

Jogging towards your boyfriend, "Kazuha!" He brisked towards you as well and held you in his embrace, softly rubbed your nape, "You're giving me plenty of inspirations for a haiku after such a wonderful performance." Kazuha would appreciate you refraining from such a heedless approach next time. He was comforted to see you safe and knowing the threats were nothing more than to use you, his weakness, against him. After witnessing that, Kazuha will be slightly ashamed he even doubted you in the first place, so he trusts that you can watch out for yourself next time.

It is time..

He had fulfilled his duties as a spy and so, it was time for the rightful heir to the throne to return to his home, Khaenri'ah. However, he guilts the thought of going back. In the beginning, he only had one reason of lingering around Mondstadt for a while but now that that he was done, there was really nothing left holding him back to return. So, why is he wavering?

His eyes- both visible- stare at the oh so familiar ceiling of your home. He had grown to love the sight of it over the years. His eyes seemed to sparkle in the night, a hand behind his head. Those eyes if his had always been unique and mysterious apropos to others one would meet along the way. It held a secret that makes one so interested in the soon-to-be former Cavalry Captain, but they could never unveil the truth behind them-- not even you.

Not even you who lay beside him bare and snuggled against him, a hand on his chest. Not even you who was most closest to the knight. If you couldn't do that, who could?

You made a sound during your sleep, gaining the attention of the man. His eyes glistened upon landing sight on you. His heart raced at everything you do. He was happy with you, but he also bitterly blames you for being the reason he was hesitating. Why did you go make such a man fall for you? No, what was it about him that made you fall into his arms? Surely, you could see just how scary those eyes of his, right?

Honestly, you were the first to approach him knowing the darkness that he had carried since young. You dare not question what his past was or where he came from. You openly loved him, but he was going to be your heartache.

If only, he thought, if only he didn't fall into the hole you had made, he would leave Mondstadt all behind without looking back. When did he trip? Was it the first glance of you? There was really something about your eyes that intrigued the male.. Yeah, that was probably it. Something in your eyes shone something he had not seen in himself. Your eyes were free of hidden motives and your quick-witted actions proved that.

Maybe, he was interested because he felt jealous of you. Jealous that you didn't have to carry a burden of a task since young. Maybe he had gotten close to you to take that glimmer in your eyes. After all, he was a man with ulterior motives, no?

Ah, that did no good to Kaeya. He tried to convince himself over and over that there was something he wanted to take from you but as you lay bare beside him, he felt himself at a loss.

You mumbled in your sleep, once more making sounds to gain the attention of the male. Whatever you were dreaming about, it obviously was a pleasant one. He chuckles lowly and put his free hand behind the back of your head, moving you closer to his lips so he could place a kiss on the crown of your head.

"I love you."

The clacking of hurried heels and boots greet you upon entering the headquarters. It was early in the morning but everyone was jolted awake and masked with a stern look, brows furrowing as they rush past you.

You knew what was happening. Otherwise, you would still be lazily getting out of bed. "Acting Grand Master," you greet the blonde whose back was facing you. The call of her title brought her attention from another knight to you. "(Y/N), I'm so glad you're here. Have you seen Kaeya?"

Indeed, you have seen Kaeya. Hoewever, it was just a glimpse before your tired eyes fluttered shut for another hour. "No, I haven't." Jean sighs but did not dwell on the thought of the captain. "Well, we'll just pray to Barbatos that he comes soon. We need all the hands to protect the city from the Abyss."

Something inside you churned. Something was calling out to you that you failed to listen. What is it? Why was dread washing over you at the thought of Kaeya? Surely, he would be fine to take on a couple Abyss mages and hilichurls, right? Well, it doesn't matter. Even if he can take down a whole army, you should still be by his side, fighting with him.

Not waiting for orders from the Acting Grand Master, you made a bolt towards the gate. Jean shouted your name but you ignored it as that churning feeling grew inside you. "Kaeya.."

The entirety of Mondstadt was surrounded at all fronts. All sorts of Abyss mages and hilichurls attacked like savages, using this chance to take down the city while the rest of the troops were still coming their way.

Your eyes darted around, hoping to see the Cavalry Captain somewhere amongst the many men who were trying to by more time for backup to come.

You bit your lips, drawing out the blood to trickle down. Where in Teyvat is Kaeya when you needed him most? It wasn't the time for him to go drinking in a bar, getting wasted.

Not wanting to waste more time dwelling on the thought, you took the lead, running past the other knights and heading deeper into the battle. "Captain!" A knight had called your title but you dare not turn around. Something was telling you that Kaeya was further in, and you were going tl follow it. Knowing Kaeya, it does sound like him for him to rush before anybody else. "Please, Kaeya.. Please be okay."

Clearing any enemies in your way, you felt your heart become lighter at the sight a his familiar back, but you dare not break into a smile. It would just make you lose your focus on the fight.

"Kaeya!" You called, but that failed to reach his ears amongst the chaos around. You were drawing near, noticing that the army started to grow thin in the back.

You were about to call him a second time but the words got stuck in your throat, seeing that the male was talking to an Abyss mage. It confused you. Why is the Abyss mage bowing to Kaeya? Why isn't it attacking Kaeya?

The mage looks up, eyes looking past Kaeya and onto you. "Your highness, behind you," the mage gestures him to look behind. Wait, did the mage call him 'your highness'?

Kaeya turned around to look at you, revealing you both of his eyes that held no warmth as usual when they laid upon you. You were stoned into the spot, mouth feeling dry. What were you supposed to say at this point? Your head dizzied, wanting to collapse on the ground for support.

When your silence was prolonging further activities, his eyes narrowed coldly and his mouth drew a wider frown of displeasure. "(Y/N), what are you doing here?" His voice was montoned and no longer spoke in a flirtatious manner.

The mystery behind his eyes were revealed to you; the mystery that all of Mondstadt wanted to know yet could not get close enough to know.

You gulped back the lump that grew. Surely, there is some misunderstanding, right? Kaeya just wanted to toy with the mage before he killed it, right? Yeah, that has to be it. "K, Kaeya, Acting Grand Master wants you back and help protect Mondstadt.." Your eyes slightly widen in desperation, searching for the truth.

"Oh? Does she now?" A smirk tug his lips yet his eyes stayed the same. He turns his full body to face you and rested his knuckle on his hip. He was toying with you. "Y, yeah.. You better get back before she gets mad at you."

Kaeya chuckles at the look in your eyes, knowing that look all too well. "Why should I go back? I'm not from here so I have no reason to protect it." He shakes his head, all the while smiling. "(Y/N), I'm sure you already know that I am not from here, yes?"

"Where are you going with this, Kaeya? Please stop playing around and come back," you spoke with a shaky voice.

His smile drops. Were you seriously trying to convince yourself that he was a good man? He sighs and walks close to you, grabbing your chin in his hands. "Oh, (Y/N), you could be so cute at times. It almost makes me want to take you with me," his words were sincere. "But the land of sinners is not a place to call home for someone like you. So, be good and listen to when I say to stay." A flick of sorrow failed to catch your eyes.

Kaeya had not slept that night, waiting for the sun to shine through the curtains to tell him that it was time. As much as he wanted to stay with you, he was a sinner who ruled a land abandoned by the gods. He had no place in Mondstadt- with you- knowing his origins.

A tear slipped from the corner of your eyes, but Kaeya did not dare to wipe it away in fear that his heart would waver.

"Be good.. Protect Mondstadt.." He shows you one last genuine smile that you loved. His eyes allowed itself to show you his true feelings for you once more as well which just made your heart squeeze itself.

He brings your face, your lips, close to his. He was giving you one last kiss. A kiss that you would miss for as long as you lived. A goodbye kiss.

Tears left your eyes as he deepened the cherishing kiss.

He soon pulls away, watching your tears fall silently onto the ground. He smiles and turns on his heels to walk away, the Abyss mage following close behind him.

Your legs gave in and fell onto the ground as you watch the man you loved walk away from you-- never to return to Mondstadt-- to you.

Kaeya dares not to look behind. If he did, he had a feeling that he'll run up and hug you to stop those tears of yours. This was goodbye.

"Forget me and find someone else, lest you will be broken."

This might be dumb, but could you do like a modern coffee shop (or bar) AU of you training Zhongli and having a whole "coworkers to lovers" vibe? It's time for Zhongli to get a job 😤 Also I can't my mind off Zhongli struggling to work the cashier or proudly showing off making a drink correctly.

i say i am a kaeya main but in reality zhongli is the only character tripple crowned so ofc i can try to do this

how does this come about? venti and zhongli are actually roommates and renting a suburban place because everyone knows zhongli has high standards.

however, zhongli has no job nor is he able to get one that easily.

venti was fine paying for everything for the first 3 months but after he did the math and realised that he will never again drink high quality wine if this continues - he demanded that zhongli gets a job

in reality, zhongli knows a lot but the knowledge is rarely of practical necessity so when he sets out to look for a job - he is really looking for anything at all

luckily for him, your manager always talks about how it would be a blessing if 'someone with the highest coffee shop aesthetic' worked here. 'the business would blossom!'

you thought it was silly. what even is a coffee shop aesthetic?

all your doubts were immediately dismissed when your manager rushed into the shop at 9am while dragging a man by his arm inside

he was beautiful, and the colors inside the shop only made him appear even more mesmerising

it seemed like he belonged inside this space

yes, he was slightly confused why someone had to drag him inside in that manner but he did not mind since on the street, the person already promised him a job. now venti had nothing to be mad about, right?

venti did not. you however did.

when your manager asked him to make coffee for 3 he confidently walked up to you, brushed past you to get closer to the machine.

but nothing happened.

he just stood there.

you looked up at him and his chin was in his hand. never has anyone stared down the coffee machine like this.

he was an expert at making tea but this was just so different.

zhongli turned his head to look at you.

'excuse me, but what is it exactly that i am supposed to do now?'

your manager laughed but you knew he was serious about the question.

'you need to press in the order you want. and then make it using this machine.'

'ah, i see.'

and he still did nothing.

it irked you that despite this he got the job as just a waiter.

your manager was reluctant to let him go after all.

when zhongli got home he told venti about his job and what happened. venti knew how much trouble a clueless zhongli really is so he made him play papa's freezeria on the computer to get a sense of his new job.

zhongli came the next day. completely composed and seemingly prepared. in his wishes to be on time, he came early and since his key was not made yet the first sight that greeted you was not the usual door with the closed sign - it was him leaning against it with his coat and his nose slightly red from the cold.

'i am glad to see that you are here.' his voice touched you at that moment, and he was more comforting to see than the lonely.

'could you please unlock the shop?'

and you did.

when the two of you walked in, he took both of your coats and hanged them on the rack.

he seemed gentle enough and careful enough not to mess up on his first day.

zhongli dedicates himself to everything he sets his mind to. and he was flawless as a waiter. polite words and smiles; he always remembered the order correctly and his presence did draw in a few more customers.

you were still the one who worked the register and made the actual orders tho.

at the end - he made sure to help with cleaning but when the two of you were putting on the coats he said: 'it is a shame.'

you simply asked what he was referring to because his look held some regret.

'oh, my roommate made me play a game so i get familiar with the register. i just thought it was a shame i didn't get to use it today.'

how can someone feel regret about such a thing? and why did it seem so serious all of a sudden?

'if you want, i can show you how to use it tomorrow morning before the customers come?'

'i would appreciate it.'

his smile at that moment was enough to make you smile too.

and you did show him. when there was free time; it was dedicated to helping him learn how to use the register or how to make simple orders.

really, the early mornings spent with him in which you watched his hands shake to becoming steady were so ordinary but so magical.

he was always glad to learn something new.

he was a quick learner but both of you worried that he would make a mistake during official work hours so he never had a chance to use it seriously.

but, after a week and a half, you caught a small cold and zhongli was left to fight all by himself.

for those 2 days your mind was filled with worry for him. 'is he going to be okay? how will he manage the new people and the more complicated orders? will he be able to do latte art? maybe the manager will help him more now and come to the shop more often while i am out sick?'

this made you realise he was somehow an important part of your day.

after the cold, you rushed to the shop faster than ever.

he had already unlocked it and what greeted you was zhongli behind the open register.

he gave you a smile before walking over.

' i am glad to see you are here again.'

'oh no.' zhongli held your shoulders. 'you are all out of breath. is this a side effect from the cold?'

he did not even give enough time to answer and already seated you down to the closest table.

'please wait here.'

how embarrassing! you rushed here to fast just thinking about him and even ran out of breath on the way here! thank god zhongli is so dense he did not question you more or teased you.

'here.'

he slid a coffee cup towards you and you immediately smiled.

he had made a heart latte! for you!

'i actually wanted to come and visit you but this place was so busy and i did not know your address. it would have been inappropriate. but, i finally used the things you taught me.'

and as zhongli sits down across from you; he is so happy to share what happened and all the things he did thanks to you.

sure, the business bloomed in this place but it seems like love has started to bloom as well.

(venti doesn't have to worry about his wine anymore and your manager is definitely calling themselves cupid.)

Birthdays through the years (Diluc x reader)

.........*years ago*.........

You stood in front of the large doors of the Dawn Winery, your hands fiddling with the wrapped box with both nervousness and excitement. You really hope that your best friend Diluc would like the gift. You jumped a little when the door opened, revealing Crepus who saw you and gave a warm smile.

“Ah, you arrived. Diluc has been anxiously waiting for you, (y/n).” Crepus said, opening the door for you. As you walked in, Crepus called out for his son, who immediately ran out from a room. Large red eyes widened with excitement and ran into you to hug you tightly, squishing your cheeks together.

“(y/n)! I’m so happy you came!” He cried out with a big smile. You laughed as well, pulling back a little and petting his fluffy red hair. The two of you left Crepus to head into the dining room where his adopted brother, Kaeya was waiting in and gave you a small wave. Despite being the son of a famous man in Mondstadt, Diluc preferred having small birthdays with his family and best friend. You came from a humble family who worked with Crepus for a time. During that time, you often visited the Dawn Winery with your parents where you met the brothers and became close friends with them. You and Diluc became especially close to which you two never seemed to separate.

“(y/n) look at this. Kaeya and father made me this for my birthday.” Diluc said as the both of you sat down and he pointed to a white cake with red frosting, two slices cut out for the brothers.

“Wow, that looks delicious.” You complimented, causing the blue hair boy to blush shyly. A maid proceeded to cut you a slice so you decided to pass Diluc your present. “Here Diluc. I hope you like it.” Diluc thanked you and took the present, opening it rather quickly. Kaeya peeked over a little as Diluc pulled out a red gem attached through a gold rope. “My mom taught me how to make it. It’s supposed to go around your collar, like a necklace.” You explained, feeling a little nervous as Diluc stared at the present.

“This is really pretty. Thank you, (y/n).” Diluc thanked with a bright smile, immediately relieving you of all the anxiousness you’ve been feeling.

.........*a few years later*.........

Time passed and much has changed in your life. You started taking a liking to making trinkets and jewellery. You have made a number, including a blue earring for your friend Kaeya, and women started to take notice of them and wanted some for themselves. Thus you became quite well-known in Mondstadt and noticeably grew more independent from the nervous child you were before.

As you busied with your hobby-turned-job, Diluc and Kaeya grew to be strong young men who joined the Knights of Favonius. You knew it was a dream of Diluc considering the number of times you played knights with the two of them. And you were happy to see him rise up well, gaining much respect and admiration among the other knights. Kaeya seemed to have just tagged along with his brother but he too made a name for himself as a man with wits and skills.

Despite not being able to spend as much time together as when you were kids, you and Diluc still had a strong relationship. When you were both free, you would meet on a quiet grassy hill to talk about your lives. Diluc would share about his training with the knights and the people who he has met, including the successor of the Gunnhildr Clan Jean. You shared about the new materials from different regions which you tested making trinkets with, sharing how you would love to travel to those places yourself one day. No matter how tired Diluc was from training, he always seemed to make time for you. You were after all a dear friend of his and he liked the idea of having you involved in his life.

Every time you two talked, you always noticed the red gem hanging around Diluc’s neck. A present from you which he has held dear to all those years. It was just one of the quiet actions which the boy has done to show how much he appreciated your company. Other than that, many have noticed how much happier Diluc seemed when he was with you. Crepus liked to joke about how he felt relieved of leaving the Dawn Winery one day to the both of you, to which made the both of you shy about the thought.

Though, Diluc never once denied it.

Speaking of the Dawn Winery, you were right now decorating the living room for Diluc and Crepus’ arrival. It was Diluc’s coming of age ceremony and you wanted to give him a surprise when he returns home. So you came early and worked with the staff to get everything ready. You headed to the couch where you rummaged through your bag and pulled out a small package. It was a handmade lanyard which you hoped would be useful for Diluc with his new rank as captain. You were thrilled when Diluc shared the news and you immediately went to work on this as your way to say congratulations.

You smiled to yourself and placed the present on the table, waiting with the rest of the staff for the masters of the house. But all of you would have never guessed the horrible incident which would change everything which seemed normal.

.........*current year*.........

It was late at night in the Angel Share and the red hair bartender was cleaning the last of the glasses for the day. He had gotten a good amount of information for his personal mission and was ready to head back home to prepare for his quest. He heard the door opened and was about to remark about the tavern being closed when he saw who was standing by the door and his eyes widened slightly.

“Diluc. I’m glad to catch you before you left.” You said as you pulled down your hood and walked over to the bar seat.

“You know the bar is open during the day, right?” Diluc remarked, placing the glass on the tabletop.

“There’s too many people during that time. This is the only time I can talk to you without anyone bothering us.” You said. Diluc hummed in response and went to the bottle shelf. Meanwhile you quietly observed him, smiling softly. It had been three years since the unfortunate incident and it changed your lives.

Obviously Diluc became more distant and somewhat cold, an irony of his Pyro vision. The death of his father and his leave from the Knights of Favonius made you see him less, sometimes not at all. You tried to reach out to him but something told you to keep your distance for the time being, only showing your silent support on the sides.

It was only when Diluc needed help with a commission and he knew that you usually travelled across lands for your job. He trusted you and let you in on private affairs of his, including his persona as the Darknight Hero. You jumped at the chance to help him in any way you could, which included gathering intel from people of different cities and bringing new materials back to the Dawn Winery.

Because of that, the two of you begun to spend more time together. Your more optimistic nature and light talk of what you’ve seen in your travels slowly broke the walls of Diluc’s heart and the man started to become himself around you. You counted the times he managed a small smile in front of you, being happy with yourself every time he did.

“How was your trip to Liyue?” Diluc asked as he passed you a glass of your favourite drink.

“It was great. Working with the jewellers there was inspirational. Plus the experience of their culture was a nice refresher.” You answered and took a sip of your drink. “Also, I got some good information about the Abyss.”

“Sounds good. We’ll talk about more about it back in the Winery.” Diluc nodded and said. You both shared a silent moment with short chats for a while before you remembered something.

“I almost forgot. I got you something.” You went through your bag before pulling out a parcel. “It’s a speciality tea from Liyue. I know you don’t like alcohol so I thought you might like to try this.” Diluc took the parcel and a nice natural aroma wafted into his nose.

“It smells good. I’ll have someone make tea for us when we return.” You nodded and hopped over the counter to wash your empty glass. As you were, you jumped a little when strong arms wrapped around your waist and a warm breath hit the crook of your neck. You couldn’t help but smile, knowing how touchy Diluc actually is when in private. And judging by his action, it would seem that someone missed you.

“You know, I only managed to come back this quickly because it’s your birthday tomorrow. I know you don’t see the need to celebrate it but do you think you want to do something special? Just the two of us.” A small smile formed on Diluc’s face and he lifted his head to place a feather-like kiss on your forehead.

“I would really enjoy that.”

Barbatos’ Blessing || Kaeya Alberich

— 𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇 he takes care of you after a nightmare.

❝ Hey, hey. Calm down, it’s me. I’m here. ❞

warnings: none

genre: fluff with just a hint of angst

NIGHTMARES were not a daily part of your routine. On the contrary, you knew for sure that you had more dreams than nightmares in your whole life; it was as if you were immune to them. However, this one night was a simple exception; the voices of insecurity struck fear into your soul. They whispered of hate and doubt, they pulled at you relentlessly. It didn’t help that today was just one of those days; soon, you succumbed to their horrific hold, and slipped into an unfamiliar state of darkness.

You have always trusted Kaeya, even before you became a couple. You placed your trust in him wholeheartedly; knights would often find you working separately, but when together, there was just something special. You trusted him to take care of himself, and that your love was mutual; he, in return, trusted you to be understanding, and to be there when he needs you.

You trusted him so much that you weren’t at all affected by the longing gazes of women and men alike as the two of you strolled through the city.

The voices of negativity refused to let this go and took it as a chance.

In front you, Kaeya smirked and spoke with flattery. They reached out to him, blushes and even further longing in their gazes, as if they were his. He doesn’t refute; instead, he welcomed it with open arms. You reached out as well, desperate to get him back, to make him stay. You wanted him here beside you.

It was all useless, because every step you took towards him, he would take two away from you.

He was out of your reach, and there was nothing you could do about it. Kaeya, please, don’t leave! You wanted to shout, but your mouth was just glued shut, and there was nothing you could do as he got out of sight, leaving you.

He left you all alone.

Your whole body shook as gut-wrenching wails escaped, the ground scraping your knees as you dropped. “P-Please come back..!” You sobbed, “Don’t leave me here alone, Kaeya! Not you too!”

I should have expected he would leave me too.. You couldn’t help but think. It was all in due time..

It just so happened that the due time ended up being now.

Yet, even with your thoughts, sadness leaked from you in waves, and your wails only got louder as time passed by. You couldn’t stop no matter what you did, because it was just too excruciating.

The person who got close to you, who took down your walls with utmost precision, care, and patience, the one who had given you love after years of receiving none.. was gone. He wasn’t here, and he wouldn’t ever come back.

“—ake up!”

You couldn’t hear past your cries.

“—incess, wake up, come on..”

How could you possibly do that? Kaeya’s gone, he left.

“[name]! Calm down, it’s just a nightmare!”

You gasped and shot up, frantically looking around. There were bookshelves upon bookshelves around you, and it had all had your beloved novels as well as research. On the table was a cup filled with water, and letters upon letters; all filled with the same writing. There was something soft around you, and upon looking, it was a fur coat. It was Kaeya’s, the very same one that he had multiple of, and wore on the daily.

Kaeya was here.

Cold hands softly grasped your shoulders, bringing you close. His warmth, although a bit chiller than the others, brought immense comfort, causing you to cry in relief. Kaeya only brought you closer to his form as he heard this, whispering sweet words of comfort in your ear while patiently waiting. His words of “you’re okay”, “I’m here”, “I love you, okay?” were endlessly repeated throughout the process.

With his help, you were able to calm down enough to stop crying. Kaeya tucked away the stray hair strands that stuck to your face due to the wetness, revealing your slightly red eyes. “Don’t look, I’m hideous…” You mumbled in shame and tried to turn, but he shook his head earnestly and kept you in place. “You are always pretty, my dear. I won’t let you think otherwise.” He placed a kiss on your eyelids, chuckling as your cheeks warmed.

Kaeya handed the cup of water to you, watching intently as you took it from his hold and sipped, relishing in the coldness that entered your throat. You were glad he didn’t ask what the nightmare was about, and instead opted to focus his attention on you, not the details. Once you were done, he placed it back on the table and then sat down on the couch, bringing you to his lap.

It was quiet for a long while. In the meantime, you admired your boyfriend’s soft visage. He practically glowed, with the help of the moon’s light shining down upon him like that. His expression, usually unreadable to those around him, only showed a loving smile, no deceit or hidden emotions shown. He still wore his iconic outfit, with the exception of his coat, which was wrapped around you.

His fingers weaved through your hair silently, as if he was in a daze. Kaeya untangled some knots gently on the way, opening his mouth to speak. “You don’t have to tell me what it was about, but I want you to remember this..” He pushed your chin up to make you look at him in the eye.

“You’re [surname] [name]. You’re my significant other, and the very person I strive to be with so much that I dream of marrying you one day, even though I don’t deserve such. I want to be selfish and keep you here with me, where we’re in our own world without a single care, only loving each other. Whatever it was that was bothering you.. I won’t let it happen, get to you, or anything else. I will make sure of it.”

Kaeya was completely serious, and gave your lips a kiss as he finished explaining. He pressed his forehead to yours and smiled, saying, “Why would I leave when I have you right here in my arms? Barbatos blessed me with a gift that is you. Princess, there is no way I’m letting go now.”

You could only give a teary smile and laugh as you threw your arms around him.

Barbatos blessed me with you, darling.

[ Mini Author's Note ] ;; Just a head's up, the image I've used above for Kaeya is edited and taken by yours truly :DD Feel free to use it, but acknowledgement would be nice if you don't mind! This is just a surprise that I was able to do. I hope you guys had fun, thank you for reading!

Let’s Slip Away: Diluc x Fem Reader: Childhood Best Friend Au

Summary: You and Diluc slip away from the annual Dawn Winery Ball and confess. Reader then deals with some anxiety about the relationship and Diluc soothes them.

Tags:

Lots of fluff, Creepus is a wonderful person, Diluc is so smooth, dancing under the moonlight, long fit.

Diluc x Reader

Lets Slip Away

The annual Dawn Winery Masquerade Ball, the biggest ball this side of Mondstat, or it used to be. Thankfully, Diluc had successfully scaled the ball down in size a little more with each passing year. Still, it didn't make much of a difference with the ballroom still being packed tight. No matter how the guest list shrunk, people found a way to take up the same amount of space as before. There's nothing I loved more than a dance, but it was the people I couldn't stand. Everyone liked to pretend they were an evil aristocrat once their identity was concealed. A fancy dress, a decorative mask, and a new hairstyle, and everyone felt invincible. It was the same thing every year; they'd order the staff around, drink till they lost control, and leave the manor a mess. It was deplorable.

After watching a woman toss a glass on one of the maids, I lost my cool. I may or may not have tossed my grape juice on the women in retribution. The maid couldn't do it, so I had to use my position as "Master" Diluc's best friend to get away with it. What I didn't expect was for the lady's husband to toss not just the wine but the whole glass at my face. While the glass didn't bust when the base hit my head, it did leave a notable bruise, and the wine soaked through my hair, mask, and dress.

Elzer stepped in immediately to settle the issue, and instead of sticking around to get a lecture, I slipped into the garden. Hiding between several grapevines. I listened to the music pour from the house above and pouted. If I had played my cards right tonight, I would have been dancing in an empty corner with Turner or maybe even Diluc if he was free. He always saved the last dance for me. When the party started to clear a little, we'd stay in my favorite corner and have a quick dance while he whispered about he'll find a way to have the event canceled next year. But no, I was being eaten by mosquitos fighting off a headache.

Holding my mask between my hands, the once white fabric had stained dark red. Even my cream dress was littered with splotches that wrecked of dandelion wine. Sucking in my lower lip, I held back a sudden wave of sadness. It settled into my bones and swept through my limbs in a jitter. Why was I so sad? I avenged the maid and did the right thing… but my chest ached. Curling around myself, I tucked my head between my lap. There was a time and place for crying, and a party wasn't one. Yet, there I was, sobbing into the fancy gown Diluc had hand made for me. Of course, he wouldn't be mad at me for what happened, but the guilt was eating me alive. I had ruined the evening for myself and made things harder on my friend. "There you are. I've been looking all over-. Hey, Elzer told me what happened, but he didn't mention a welt. How badly are you hurt?" Diluc pushed through the vines faster and hopped over the last row. He knelt beside me and carefully lifted my chin so he could see my face. "I'm just being a baby." I leaned back, the moonlight catching my skin. He ran his thumb over the knot on my forehead, and he clenched his teeth. "Damn bastard." He looked back at the mansion. "He might be wearing a mask, but there's only one person in Mondstat with monogram shoe buckles." "What?" I laughed; he was so serious, but the idea of a monogram shoe buckle had me drying up my tears. "Who pays for that kind of thing?" "Mr. Barker." Diluc wiped under my eyes. "Are you hurt anywhere besides your head?" "Besides the guilt of running the dress you got me and making the party harder for you to manage, I'm fine." I let it out. There was no use in pretending it wasn't bothering me. I had learned a lot about Diluc in our years of being together. While he was a very perceptive man when it came to solving crimes and putting things together, he didn't have the same skill for guessing how I felt. He's known something was wrong before, but he'd just find ways to blame himself if I didn't tell him. "I'll have you another dress made, and those Barkers aren't your fault. Ms. Barker started it, and I ended it. There's always a little drama at these events." He twirled my hair around his finger. "I'm sorry I wasn't there to stop it entirely." "Don't go blaming yourself now." I scooted so close; I was almost in his lap. "Let's just focus on the music or the sky. I know you'll have to go back in soon, so let's just relax for a moment." "Hmm, I can hear it from here. It's nice." A soft number started to play, and people passing by the window cast shadows into the courtyard. He leaned his head against mine. Minutes passed by, and the song changed, both of us just settling our nerves. "So, I guess we won't have the last dance together this year." I hummed, the thought burning at the back of my mind. "I can't go back in there like this." I forced myself to laugh, trying to get it off my chest without sounding too sad. "We don't have to go back in. Elzer can handle the end of the night speech for me, like every year." Diluc stood, reaching his hand out to me. "Milady, may I have this dance?" "Diluc…of course, you may." I pushed my insecurities down and gripped his rough hand. Being wealthy, Diluc had been trained in many different types of formal ballroom dances. When he was in the zone, there was no one but Kaeya who could match his prowess and aura. But I wasn't blessed with the same background. I was just the daughter of the maid, and while my mother was paid well, there wasn't enough money to pay for a dance instructor. However, Diluc taught me everything he knew. We use to spend hours after his class, practicing and gliding around the living room. After some time, I even got to join the classes as Diluc and Kaeya's partner. Creepus convinced my mother it was just good practice for the boys, but looking back, he just wanted me to get that experience as well. "You okay?" Diluc gently gripped my waist as I spun back into his arms. "Yes, I was just thinking about when you taught me how to dance." I closed the gap between us and started moving with the song. Diluc took charge after a few more movements, and I gave up trying to lead. It was always a fun game for us to try to take charge, but I normally gave in fairly fast. Every now and then, he'd let me lead, but I often stepped on his toes when I did. The ground wasn't level as a dance floor, so it was easier to just follow Diluc. Since he took the first step, he was able to find the best footholds. When we did hit a small hump, we'd steady each other and share a small smile. It wasn't a seamless performance like when we were on solid ground, but it was fun. It also gave us a reason to cling tighter to each other. His broad chest was always so warm; there was nothing more pleasant than laying my head there and closing my eyes as we swayed under the moon. "That was always so much fun." Diluc spun me out, then back into his arms. "Father use to watch us practice, he never told me directly, but Elzer said it was one of his favorite memories." Diluc pressed his lips into a line, eyes turning back to the manor. "He always loved this event, but I can't help but hate it." "I'm not a fan of the crowds or the entitled guests. But I do enjoy dancing with you." I laid my head on his shoulder, bringing him back to the present. "It seems we only dance when this event rolls around. And I can't help but wish for more moments like this. So, while I understand your distaste, I do think Creepus had the right idea. This is a chance for all of us to come together do something we all loved…it just is hard to enjoy when other people are so entitled." "I feel the same way. Dancing with you, it's always my favorite part of the ball." We swayed back and forth in a tight embrace, the music fading out and our footwork growing sloppy. "There's been so much to do recently. I'm afraid I've neglected you." "Mother told me that as friends get older, drifting apart is normal… I'm just glad you're still here with me. No matter how short that time is." He hugged me tighter, inhaling a sharp breath. "Maybe friends do, but my feelings for you are much stronger than just friends." I gasped before I could stop myself. Crickets chirped in the distance, and the lighting bugs emerged just as the party started to close. This moment was very much real…but did he really just confess? "You want to be with me?" I slowly looked up, grabbing the sides of his suit. "As more than friends?" "I do." He pulled back a little, glancing at the ground. "How do you feel? Could you ever love me as more than a friend? I know it's selfish to ask that of you, given the dangers that follow my line of duty. But I can't deny myself any longer." "My heart is going to jump out of my chest, Luc." Grasping his hand, I pressed it to my wrist. He smiled, rubbing his thumb over my pulse. "I want to be yours, and you mine. To be honest, I've had feelings for you for a while now. I just thought you didn't return them." Heat climbed up my face, and I looked away to hide it. While his confession was so smooth, mine was energetic and messy. Why couldn't I keep it calm? "That settles it then." He stepped closer, our eyes locking and fingers lacing. "We'll be together from here on out." A warm breeze went by, picking up the bottom of my ruined skirt. "Next time there's a dance, you won't have to leave my side, nor I yours. There will be no flying wine glasses or uncouth guests. We can dance the night away without worry or interruption." "I don't know if a party could ever go that smoothly." I pushed his hair back and cupped his face. "Unless we barred over half the guest list." "If you don't think I'd do that, then you underestimate how far I'll go to make you happy." His checks tined red, barely illuminated by the moon. "Oh, I don't doubt you, Master Diluc. But I'm not hard to please, we could dance in the living room like we use to, and I'd be the happiest person alive." I tugged him closer, wrapping my arms around his hips, and swaying to an imaginary beat. "It's not often you add my title before my name." He hummed, letting me lead us to the song in my head. "Master Diluc, whatever do you mean?" I batted my eyelashes and snickered. "I didn't realize I added it. Maybe it's where I've spent most of the night talking about you, and not to you that I've forgotten how to be relaxed. There was many a guest who wanted to pry about your love life." "Well, you have a definitive answer now, Lady Amber." He kissed the top of my head, stopping for a moment. His body radiated a wave of heat, and he nodded to himself. "It's starting to get cold. We should head inside before you catch a cold. I'm sure everyone's left by now." "I don't want this moment to end." I clung to his shirt, the warmth he emitted making my eyelids grow heavy. Whenever he allowed me to use him as a personal heater, I took the chance. But this was the first time I didn't worry about it being the last. "We have many more moments like this ahead of us." He supported me as we walked towards the mansion, looping his arm around my waist. "Let's go clean up, and turn in for the night. Tomorrow we can have breakfast and go for a ride along the river. How does that sound?" "It sounds so nice." Once we were back in the house, Elzer met us in the doorway. "Where have you been, Master Diluc?" He rubbed the bridge of his nose and glanced at me. "And you, Ms. Amber, what were you thinking tossing your drink? You completely ruined the night. I could hardly contain the guests" Diluc wrapped his arm around my shoulder, and Elzer's tone sifted from miffed to muted. "Elzer, the issue was with the guests, not Amber." He steered me towards the stairs, nudging me along. "Go on to bed. I'll be up there in a moment. I have some business to finish up." Diluc walked towards his office, motioning for Elzer to follow him. Elzer shot me a perplexed look and tried to mouth out, 'be more careful' before hurrying after Diluc. I whisper back, "okay," before taking the stairs two at a time before stopping. I wasn't going to get in trouble, so I might as well show I'm not ashamed. "Goodnight Elzer," I called after the older man, with as "pleasant" of a tone as I could muster. Parties almost always stressed him more than Diluc, but since Elzer was an employee, he couldn't run and hide like Luc. Truth be known, if Diluc hadn't been there, I would have gotten a long lecture on the importance of keeping good relations with potential business partners. But that's only because Elzer couldn't let his frustrations out on anyone else. I was always there to listen and receive his distain when things went wrong. It wasn't my favorite pastime, but it did help him feel better. It was surprising he was so stressed, he actually chastised me in front of Diluc. It must have been a tough night even after I left. I usually was lectured in private, but he really was ready to let me have it. Once in the guest room, I disrobed. The heavy gown took several minutes to untie and loosen the laces, but once it was done, my lungs could fully expand. My ribs ached, so I rubbed circles on my sides till the initial throb dulled. The night had gone better than I ever planned, and now it was over. Yet, there was a worse throb in my chest than the pain of a corset. Diluc and I were finally together. We removed the ever-lingering question and just confessed. Why did it hurt inside? Was it that the party was hard on everyone else and I was so happy? Or was it something else? Tilling the blue pitcher on the nightstand, water rushed into the ornate basin below. Dipping a rag into the cool water, I began to wash the wine from my face. It had been such a stressful night. Perhaps the empty feeling inside was fear of the unknown. Or fear that Diluc would wake up and change his mind. That he'd send me away for good once he realized he could never be with someone of such low status. Someone who didn't couldn't even keep up public appearance at a ball. Maybe, it would just take me slipping up once when I was wearing a mask? Then he'd send me away from the manor. I finished cleaning up, then tossed the water out the window. Fixing the pitcher and basin back in place, I reached below the nightstand and pulled out my nightgown. Slipping on the flowy gown, I turned down my sheets and got comfortable. This guest room had been mine for as long as I could remember. While I still lived in the cottage by the river with my mother, I spent more nights at the mansion than at home. Diluc and I would rush through his paperwork every night, and I'd help get his gear ready to go protect Mondstat. I was his sidekick in many ways. Spending so much time there at night, it just made sense for me to sleep here too. We were a great team. Plus, the close proximity made things easier and less suspicious… But that wasn't the whole truth. It was more so that my mother had met someone new, and he had moved into our shared home. He was a nice man, a retired Knight of Favonius, but I just couldn't relax around him. He was stern about me not going out after dark, so staying over at the mansion became more and more frequent. Which was better for mom and Mr.Godfrey's partnership. But while I spent more nights away, mom started to believe there was something between Diluc and me, so she was happy to see me leave home. She was going to be overjoyed to hear the news that we confessed. Though, I'm sure she'll say kicking me out was the reason we finally admitted our feelings, which was not the whole truth. Still, I did miss my own bed sometimes. Pressing my back to the headboard, I curled my knees up and rested my head between them. Sucking in a deep breath, small tears slipped past again. There was too much happening. I couldn't think about one thing for too long. So much good just happened. Why? Why was I thinking about the bad? A familiar rasp at the door rang through the room. "Come in." Wiping my eyes, I sat up and pulled the covers up to my neck. "You're crying again." He walked into the candlelight. I could tell he had cleaned up before coming to see me. He was wearing one of his loose puffy shirts and some cotton pants; his hair had been smoothed and pulled into a low ponytail, water dripping from the ends. It didn't matter what he wore. He always looked unbelievably handsome. "Was it Elzer? He knows it's not your fault. He was just worried about our trade deal." "There's just so much to think about. I can't let myself be happy." I rubbed my eyes again. "What if you realize I'm not good enough for you? Or what if my mother's partner treats you poorly because you quit the Knights? Then that couple, what if they stop working with you and it hurts the business because of me? No one is ever going to see me as anything more than a gold digger." My brain let loose, new concerns and problems being added to my mix. "I'm so negative right now, and I know you probably just want to be happy that we feel the same way…but- I'm so sorry. "He pulled back the covers and crawled in with me. Wrapping me in his arms, the blanket went over our heads, and Diluc settled down. "There you go, having to comfort me like a child." I rested my hand on his shoulder. "You sure you could learn to love a mess like me?" "I already love you." He rubbed patterns on my back, pressing a kiss to the lump on my forehead. "You've been like this since we were children, plagued with worries beyond your control. I know that after you let it out, you always feel better. And that the minute you go silent, that's when I really need to do some digging." He paused drawing on my back and instead moved to play with my hair. "We'll figure it all out as we go, all the what's and if's. We'll take them one at a time, starting with the one I have control over." "Woah." He flipped me over, hovering inches from my face. He pinned me between his legs, the v neck of his shirt hanging open so I could see the red hairs on his chest. "You could be from the richest family in Mondstat or poorest, and I'd still want to be with you." He kissed me, pressing down just until our bodies touched. "I'd go as far as to say, if you were a member of the Fatui, I'd still be smitten. I would certainly find a way to break your ties with them, but I couldn't stop loving you. So, you are more than enough for me, and if anyone makes you feel differently, then I will handle it." "That's a bold statement coming from you." I ran my fingers through his ponytail as it hung over his shoulder. "I can't argue with that logic, but I promise I'm not a member of the Fatui." I wrapped my arms around his waist, encouraging him to squish me with his full weight. "I'm going to crush you." He fought against me, but I only nuzzled his neck, blowing raspberries. "Amber, hey." "I know. But I'd also like to point out how improper it is for you to be in my room at this hour. So, I'd like to be crushed as repayment… please." I let go of one side of his hip and wiped my eyes. "You are right. It is improper." He lowered himself a little more but didn't fully lay on me. "A true gentlemen would never stay this late with a proper young lady. However, there is something else I want that's a little scandalous." "What could that be?" I gasped, my lungs not fully expanding as his weight sunk down on my chest. He noticed as he sat up to his previous position. "A kiss?" He moved his elbow up and cupped my face. His eyes glimmered with the flame that was lighting up the room. His touch was gentle but so firm I couldn't imagine being in another person's embrace. At that moment, there were only two people in the world, and I was madly in love with one of them. "That sounds quite proper to me. You should always kiss your lover goodnight." I stuttered a little, unable to keep up the playful banter as I looked at his lips. The smile that spread on his face made the butterflies in my stomach flutter. Archons, I was smitten. His thumb brushed my lower lip before he brought his mouth down for a chaste kiss. Testing the waters, he hovered millimeters above me, and I stole his lips in a deeper kiss. Having a lack of experience in the field, I matched the pattern he set. Just like dancing, I tried to take the lead and failed miserably. So I did was I was best at, adding the fun flourishes. I curled my fingers into his hair and snaked my hand up his shirt and across his chest. He matched my movements, caressing my face and tilting my head up to deepen the kiss. Every star in the sky dulled in comparison to the explosion of light that spread over my body. He shifted back, catching his breath. he smoothed my hair and peppered, kissing around my face before setting back. "Thank you." He laced our fingers together, pulling my hand to his mouth and kissing my knuckles. "Will you stay tonight?" I took our intertwined hands and kissed his knuckles in return. "I don't want you to leave just yet." "As you wish." He got behind me, adjusting the covers we had tossed around earlier. "Now, let's get some sleep. We have a big day tomorrow." I laid my head on my pillow and scooted back until we were slotted against each other. His hand wrapped around my shoulders in a reassuring squeeze. "I love you." "I love you more." It took a while for all the blood pumping through my body to relax again, but once it did, I fell into a deep and peaceful sleep. Dreams of dancing through the clouds with Diluc filled my head, and I had the best rest of my entire life. Next to the man I dearly loved.

To Our Beloved Tartaglia

Summary: A story on how two people say i love you without saying it.

A/N: Fluff for today’s birthday boy! I’m buying him a cake and celebrating his birthday! Implied sex at the end.

The freezing temperature of Dragonspine was one you’ve grown to find as a minor inconvenience. Though you do enjoy playing in its place and exploring it for treasures, you’ve never grown to like it. It was just a tourist destination in your humble opinion. Not that anyone who knew you agreed, even Paimon had wondered if you were quite alright in your brain.

Of course, correlation breeds attachment and from the moment you heard Tartaglia offhandedly mention how Dragonspine was like Snezhnaya in its freezing temperature, you’ve dedicated a time in the day to spend time in it to ensure that your body would not be shocked when it finally lands in Snezhnaya. If anyone noticed how you’ve silently grown fond of the place, you’d deny to your dying breath that it had to do with Tartaglia.

Not even Kaeya’s impressive boob window would be able to make you admit your growing intentions to tie down the volatile Harbinger to your side through marriage. There were some things you wanted to keep close to your chest, and this was one of them.

It stood to reason then that you would have kept your sudden desire to perfect the art of cocktail mixing or to be more honest, perfecting Blue Lagoon. Your sudden daily appearance in Cat’s Tail had been the talk of Mondstadt, it grew large enough that even the Traveler and Paimon had dropped by.

“Paimon wonders why you would work here just to practice your bartending skills?” Paimon had asked after being served a non-alcoholic drink.

“I wanted to make a drink for Childe with the fire water he gifted me on my birthday” You revealed as you finished the Long Island and gave it to the Traveler, “On the house.”

You winked at them.

“Huh? Why would you even want to do that?”

You smiled and didn’t answer Paimon, opting to give her food to distract her. On the side, the Traveler gave you a knowing look but you merely signaled them to keep it a secret.

“I really hate the taste of fire water but it does its job in the cold. I don’t know why you’d want something like this, comrade...but if it makes you happy-”

“Since you hate the taste of it, give me enough time to make a drink suitable for you.”

“Hahaha! There’s no need to go that far, I’ve drank this when I was just a year in the Fatui!”

“Then I’ll give you a drink just for you as Tartaglia.”

When you saw his letter today, you couldn’t help but feel the bubbling emotion in your heart. Excitement rushed through your veins as you ignored the rest of the letters addressed to you to read his letter. You sat in front of your house’s door step, smile on your face as you read his letter.

You couldn’t help but imagine the whine in his tone, you lamented that the two of you couldn’t have bumped into him at Dragonspine but your travels took you far and wide through Teyvat. The chances of meeting him by chance were low, so you resigned on buying information of his whereabouts.

Nothing substantial, just sightings of him if only to fake a chance meeting but it didn't happen so far. The two of you were always on the opposite ends of Teyvat that you had half a mind that Celestia itself was sabotaging your love life. Your heart felt elated at knowing he was fondly remembering the time you had spent with each other, as well as the sparring sessions that always seemed like on the verge of something more.

When your eyes read the final words on his letter, you couldn’t help but feel your heartbeat quicken.

“A special day?” You muttered to yourself, your mind quickly churning as you hastily went inside your rented home in Mondstadt and quickly rushed towards your room to grab your room to change your clothes. You had thought he was in Snezhnaya so you had already sent his gift earlier, timing it so that it would arrive today but if his letter was to be understood, it meant that he was in Liyue today.

‘If I use the waypoints, I can get there quickly and spend the day with him!’ You thought as you began to meticulously fix yourself. You wanted to show him the best sides of you today.

Your clothes were meticulously picked, the outfit would pose no hazards during a battle while at the same time accentuating your figure and increasing your charm. You wanted to be prepared on the off chance Tartaglia wanted to have a spar, but if he wanted to go on a date,

“Then I’ll be prepared as well!” You giggled as you finished checking yourself out and began to apply light waterproof make-up. Your lips were glossed and purposely drawn to capture his attention on how kissable it was.

You sprayed a soft floral perfume before winking at the mirror and making your way to the nearest warp point and teleporting yourself in Liyue.

You landed softly in front of the teleport waypoint in Feiyun Slope. The effort you spent on yourself was noticeable, the mid-morning populace of Liyue took a couple of glances at you. Anyone could tell that you were about to go on a date, eyes followed you as you happily walked towards the Northland Bank.

“Good morning, Vlad!”

“O-oh! Good morning! Are you here for Lord Tartaglia?” Vlad asked you, blushing after being caught mid-yawn.

“Yeah, I was hoping he was around here” You replied, suddenly feeling embarrassed at your haste.

Vlad grinned, it was no secret to the employees of the Northland Bank that you and Lord Tartaglia frequently went out together. As far as they were concerned, marriage was a foregone conclusion between the two of you.

“Of course! Just head straight to the second floor! Lord Tartaglia is still in his office around this time!”

“Thanks! I heard Nadia’s into crab tofu this days~” You happily helped Vlad to further his relationship with Nadia.

Each step that you took made your smile brighter, your head was full of thoughts about him. Wondering if he had gotten stronger, was he eating well, did he get new scars, had he visited his family recently, was he taking good care of himself. All of this went through your head as you headed to his office but most of all you thought,

‘Did you think of me as much as I thought of you?’

Your heart was bursting at the seams and you couldn’t wait to be reunited with him. Your footsteps slowed as you reached the door to his office, you could hear the soft muffled sounds of scribbling behind the door. You stood in front of it, debating, thinking, on the words you wanted to say to him.

You hesitated, wondering if the words on his letter were just politeness and not a reflection of his true feelings towards you. You lingered in front of the door, listening to the sounds inside the room, and wondered if you could cross the line today. You thought of the package that had surely already arrived in Snezhnaya, before your thoughts could even spiral further down the road, the door opened and in front of you stood Tartaglia.

Somehow, against your will, you couldn’t help but smile at him. Your traitorous body revealing your heart right in front of him without any regard for your reservations.

“Tartaglia!”

And when he smiled back, eyes soft as if the mere mention of his name had not revealed your fondness of him, you felt yourself fall in love with him again.

Your name felt safe in his mouth, treasured, and when he pulled you close and held you in a tight embrace, you prayed that he wouldn’t hear the quick and rapid pump of your heart nor would he realize how easily you melted in his embrace.

“You came! I didn’t really expect you to come so quickly!” His tone was bashful, pleased, and a little bit shy and it made you even softer for him.

“Neither did I! I was hoping you were here since I’ve never been to your home in Morepesok before…” You trailed off, feeling shy.

He laughed softly, “If you keep that up, I might just really think you’ve missed me so much!”

“I did miss you” You admitted with soft eyes as you watched his face slowly turn red.

“Comrade…” Tartaglia averted his eyes, the back of his covering half of his face, “I’m no match for you today.”

You chuckled softly, “Mhm. Before that let me greet you first.”

He looked at you and you wondered what sort of face you were making right now. You sincerely hoped it wasn’t weird or ugly.

“I’m listening.”

“Tartaglia, Happy birthday” You stepped closer to his personal space, hands on his chest as you tiptoed and kissed the corner of his mouth.

“I’ve actually sent your gift to Morepesok but since you’re here...today I’ll give myself to you.”

Tartaglia blushed as he grasped your hands and with unconcealed anticipation replied, “How bold! I can’t believe you’re saying that in broad daylight!”

“What’s bold about it?” You asked him “I’m willing to do anything you want today as your present since your real one is in Snezhnaya.”

“Oh.”

You frowned at his reaction, “I-I can change it to something else! Do you want new weapons?” You worried that you had disappointed him with your stand-in gift.

“No!”

He coughed upon realizing his reaction and hastened to explain himself, “I mean, I’m glad to have you today! You can’t change it to something else!”

You felt relieved at his words. Tartaglia continued speaking, “I want to go on a date with you today, eat your cooking for lunch, and then spar in the afternoon, and we finish this at my room.”

“As you wish!”

In the morning, after Tartaglia had finished signing and writing the documents for the Fatui, the two of you ate breakfast at Wanmin Restaurant. His skills in using chopsticks were marginally better but it still took him many attempts before he could eat a couple of bites.

It was cute. It was endearing. And you were so so in love that you didn’t mind picking up the crystal shrimp and feeding it to him.

“C’mon now, don’t be shy” You told him when his mouth remained close and you could see the hesitation in his eyes “You’ll need all the energy for our fight later.”

You locked eyes with him as he ate from your chopsticks, seeing up close how long his lashes were, the slight curl on its end and the fascinating blue of his eyes. You wondered if Tartaglia could see how much you loved him, if your eyes betrayed the depth of your affection for him. But as soon as he removed his mouth from the chopsticks, crystal shrimp gone, the moment had ended and you ate from your bowl of Universal Peace.

When you saw him swallow, you immediately reached for the Squirrel Fish and took a piece of it, offered it to him and Tartaglia ate. Had it anyone else you wouldn’t have bothered but as always, Tartaglia managed to be the exception and you didn’t mind.

After eating, the two of you walked along Liyue Harbor, browsing shops and buying him small trinkets to bring back home. You visited the blacksmith to commission him a new bow, one designed to further improve his skills at the bow. You would pick it up later in the day, and Tartaglia dragged you to watch opera. The two of you sat close, closer than usual and the butterflies in your stomach never settled down. His hand never left yours and you wondered what sort of picture the two of you painted in the eyes of Liyue’s populace.

You couldn’t help but wish that you could keep on celebrating his birthdays with him from now on.

By the time the play ended it was past lunch time, so the two you went to the market stalls and bought ingredients for a late lunch before heading back to his apartment. Tartaglia helped as you made his longevity noodles, telling him the story behind it from a time before Rex Lapis’.

“I guess, you must really like me that much if you’re giving me this to eat!”

“Well, since we met in the middle of my life, I wanted to make sure that we’d have a lot of time to spend together to make up for it” You teased him even if it was the truth.

You didn’t know what the future held for both of you but you wanted to be part of his life longer than the time you weren’t in it. In his kitchen, you served him the noodles, every part of it made with love and well-wishes for his life and you hoped that there would be more years to come that you could spend it this way.

‘I wonder if you could tell how much I love you with each bite you take?’

When all was said and done, when the two of you had gone through all of his wishes, you both sat at the pavilion in the Dwelling in the Clouds, stargazing and observing Celestia. Between the two of you were two glasses filled with Blue Lagoon.

“You know, I never thought that you’d really make a drink with Fire Water that I’d like” Tartaglia said, his gaze far away “Say, do you do this for others too?”

“I don’t” You confessed, your face felt like it was on fire, you had never been comfortable speaking out your love unless it was hidden behind a joke or said in a playful careless manner.

A moment later, Tartaglia’s movement had you looking at him, drinking in the rare sight of his gentle smile, a genuine one that carried only what you dared to hope was fondness for you.

“If you keep this up, looking at me like that, I might really get my hopes up” His voice was soft and gentle as his face came closer to yours.

“Say comrade, if I kissed you right now what would you do?”

Before you could even think of a reply his lips were on yours and you were pushed down the bench, glasses strewn aside as Tartaglia’s tongue entered your open mouth and kissed you deeply. Your arms embraced his neck as the two of you kissed passionately, drowning in each other in gentle passionate bliss above the clouds. His hand lingered on your thigh, squeezing and caressing it as he applied pressure on your crotch and creating a friction that had you arching your body close.

When the two of you came up for air, you looked so debauched that Tartaglia almost couldn’t help but devour you right then. The flush on your cheeks, the dazed look in your eyes and your glistening red lips that had been a temptation to him all day created a picture that would always linger in his mind.

“If I asked you to give yourself to me…” Tartaglia’s hand traveled down your inner thigh, getting closer to the sides of your crotch “would you?”

“...yes” You covered your eyes, if only to hide your embarrassment.

His soft laughter had you peeking back at him.

“Thank you”

His lips were back on yours and made no move to stop him as his hands went under your clothes, playing with your body as if he had spent time thinking on how to elicit moans from your mouth. He was gentle but purposeful in his acts as your clothes were removed piece by piece and discarded into a pile on the floor.

You bit your hand as he took you apart again and again, plunging you into a passionate love affair that had you crying for his name and tasting the sweetness of his love with each kiss. It felt sacrilegious to have done such an act in a place owned by the Adepti but each bite, each kiss, had your heart pounding in excitement.

You loved him as ardently as the fires of Natlan, as deep as the waters of Liyue’s seas, you loved him with all of your heart and every fiber of your being. What bliss it was to experience this love that made you feel human, that the mere mention of his name could bring a smile on your face.

How wonderful it was to be in his arms right now, enjoying the bliss of being loved and loved in return. With your hands clasped together with his, your heart filled to the seams, you spoke,

“I’m glad to have met you.”

When Tartaglia had left that letter on your doorstep, he had stood in front of it for a long while. Wondering what you would say if he was the first thing you saw in the morning. Would you greet him with a happy birthday? Or would you scream in fright? His thoughts went on and on as he merely stood there thinking upon dozens of scenarios if only for you to be the first one to wish him a happy birthday.

He wanted to tell you that his days were no longer the same without you by his side, that the mundane everyday life no longer felt exciting when you weren’t there to experience it with him. He wanted to tell you how he always wanted you to just show up whenever your informants inquired about him.

He had entertained the thought that you would one day show up in his workplace, food in hand and his name on your lips but he knew that you were the type to stick to your duties, and really he couldn't fault you for that when he was the same. But sometimes, the selfish and childish part of him wanted you to throw away everything for him.

Just for a while, just for a moment, if only to have something to look back upon when all was said and done.

So when he had seen you standing before him, eyes bright and looking at him like he was your most cherished person, he couldn’t help the happiness that was bursting at the seams. And now that you were in his arms, on his lap with your head on his chest, he couldn’t help but kiss you again and again. Making up for lost time, for all of those moments when he could have breached the line and made a move but didn’t.

“Stay with me” He offered, asked even when he knew that it was impossible right now. Not when either of your allegiance could go against each other any time, you with the Adventurer’s guild and him with the Fatui.

“One day” you promised.

And that was enough for him. It gave him hope that both of you would make it out alive. It gave him something to look forward to when his time with the Harbingers had come to an end.
